BMW 435i F32/F30: BMS Intercooler and FTP Charge pipe / Boost pipe Install for the N55

[@terrancecollins2696]

My charge pipe blew up literally 30min after going Stage 1 … have BMS charge pipe now and it’s been great lol

[@TVang]

That’s nutts! Sounds like you didn’t incur any damages, glad to hear it’s back up and stronger than before!

[@terrancecollins2696]

@@TVang nope I actually was able to get the charge pipe back on and drive it until the BMS came in lol I got lucky it didn’t completely disintegrate

[@typerledsfk8190]

Damn awesome video! Please keep posting I'd love to see your whole build!

[@retrobuttercup]

Not sure if I’ll tune mine for a long time, but I’m looking at these upgrades so I can at least have the car for a long time 😂

[@MrVangboi05]

I also have a 435i Msport and I'm currently thinking about engine mods too. Great content and keep it coming!

I just replaced the air tube. The top continues to come lose. I feel like I’m locking the clamp in but when I give it heavy gas it pops off. Anything specific you did to make sure it doesn’t come off

I don’t get Designer power tho

@@TVang ahh but you get INFLUENCER power cuh! 🤔

[@Blue2is]

Do i have time upgrade the boost pipe? I did charge pipe already.

[@TVang]

Charge pipe is priority, oem boost pipe doesn’t fail as much. I would still do it eventually.👍

[@Blue2is]

@@TVang thank u good to know!

[@Backwoodboy-lb1lt]

Where the link for the boost pipe outlet ?

[@rednuhtorfa]

you have a link to the boost pipe? I have a 2016 435i xdrive

[@TVang]

Sure do! Here is the link for just the boost pipe, I bought the chargepipe/boost pipe combo. x-ph.com/ftp-bmw-f2x-f3x-n55-boost-pipe/

[@rednuhtorfa]

@@TVang thanks bro I appreciate it!

[@rednuhtorfa]

@@TVang Hey one last question. My 435 has 29k miles on it so far. Any tips on getting and keeping it in good condition at higher mileage?

[@TVang]

@@rednuhtorfa mine only have about 55k on it right now but N55 motors are pretty solid. Regular maintenance, oil changes, spark plugs will keep it going. Preventive mods would help as well such as the Replacing the plastic charge pipe.

[@that_ninja_jun]

Yo sup Hmong content creator! lol Just curious, did you remove/mod the OE funnel/plastic that sits in front of the intercooler? Gonna be doing an intercooler on my 435i GC soon

[@TVang]

Had to trim a tiny bit, at 7:44 I point out where I had to notch the plastic so the intercooler tab seats properly

[@that_ninja_jun]

@@TVang yup I saw that bit. I watched the vid fully. I thought there was a funnel/trim that sits between the intercooler and front bumper? Maybe that's the 335i videos I was watching. Gotta go take a look at mine lol. Thanks for the reply. Noticed you havent had any vids posted in the last year, hope you're doing well these days.

[@TVang]

@@that_ninja_jun thanks brother! I’m good have a E63 M6 now I hope ding to make videos soon.

[@bimi5877]

Hi friend. How to contact you? I am a new owner of this car!) just interesting about condition of car and what services did you do😊

[@TVang]

Hi, congratulations on the new car. My car was in great condition.

[@bimi5877]

@@TVang thank you! Did you change oil in gearbox?

[@TVang]

No, haven’t done that yet. I did have to do a head gasket seal, cost me about $1000 USD.

[@bimi5877]

@@TVang when i driving fast and then stopping, little bit smoke coming out from under the hood. What can cause it?

[@TVang]

@@bimi5877 I had the same issue, your head gasket is probably leaking. Oil drips onto the manifold or the cats and it smokes. The N55 is known to have head gasket leaks
