M-terkait · 11-26-2013, 04:26 PM

-Increase throttle response and decreases turbo lag.
-Lightweight High Grade 6061 Aluminum Piping.
-Throttle body matched 3" piping.
-Retains factory style o-ring throttle body lock flange. Precision CNC machined throttle body flange ensures leak free connection to throttle body. Quick and easy connection and disconnection to throttle body. Ideal connection compared to the silicone hose and hose clamp connection found in all other aftermarket diverter valve upgrade pipes available in the marketplace.
-Precision CNC machined MAP sensor flange ensures leak free connection.

Comes with dual meth bungs

What do you guys think about it, do you think i need it if i'm running almost 14psi on jb4 st2 ?

I think S2 requires a downpipe, no?

I don't think stage 2 requires a downpipe, but if you have a downpipe Stage 2 is recommended.

Any prolonged levels of boost above OEM-->new charge pipe, and if possible, new bypass valves (Terry states meh in this post, but I think it's smart since boost leak will eventually develop on OEM diverters...http://www.n54tech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=836)

I just ordered one from n54tuning. With these Black Friday prices, it's a no brainier.

how do you change the BPV on a n55?

You can't because it's electronic rather than pneumatic.

mikew2069 · 11-26-2013, 08:16 PM

Is the bpv the boost solenoid? If so, some are electronic and some are pneumatic...

That's the way I interpreted his inquiry as well.

What's the difficulty on the install on those?

Very easy to follow directions. Think it took me about three hours in the garage but I was redoing my meth setup to go with the new nozzle locations and having a few beers. If just the charge pipe, cut the time in half.

RollingLower42 · 11-27-2013, 10:32 PM

I am definitely going to be ordering one of these tomorrow most likely

According to the logs I just ran, I was running about 15 psi of boost. One of my first runs though I believe I was at 18 psi. I am thinking changing it sooner rather than later is going to be a good idea...

Even though I run pretty much straight 100 octane, I still have not used map7 yet. Only map 2. So the 18 psi was on map 2 and it was one of my first logs. After that it seemed to correct itself and be a constant 15 psi
