Description
The Mishimoto N54 Performance Aluminum Charge Pipe (MMICP-N54-07) is purpose-built for BMW’s N54 inline-six, replacing the factory’s brittle plastic charge pipe with a mandrel-bent, CNC-machined aluminum piece before it fails. After nearly two decades of service, the stock N54 charge pipe grows brittle and can fail catastrophically without warning, so Mishimoto engineered this piece as an all-in-one solution for that weak point in the charge air system.
As part of Mishimoto’s Forced Induction lineup, this performance induction upgrade reinforces the path boost travels from turbocharger to engine, an area of the induction system that becomes especially vulnerable on the N54 once boost climbs well beyond factory levels. The precision-machined quick-disconnect flange is engineered to be perfectly round and far stronger than the factory plastic fitting, helping prevent boost leaks, while silicone couplers replace the factory bypass-valve quick-disconnects and intercooler-side connection for added resistance to heat and pressure. Whether your N54 is a stock daily driver or a tuned, higher-boost build, this aluminum charge pipe is designed to keep the forced induction system sealed and dependable.
Vehicle Applications
This charge pipe is engineered specifically for BMW’s N54-powered E90 and E87 chassis cars. It fits the BMW 335i for the 2007-2009 and 2011-2013 model years, the BMW 335i xDrive from 2009-2013, the BMW 335is Base for 2011-2013, and the BMW 335xi for 2007-2008. It also fits the BMW 135i from 2008-2010 and the BMW 1 Series M Base for the 2011 model year. Every one of these applications shares the same N54 engine and factory charge pipe design that this Mishimoto part is built to replace.
