Description
Replace the weakest link before it fails.
Your BMW’s factory plastic chargepipe is notorious for cracking, leaking, or completely bursting under boost — especially on tuned or hard-driven cars. Heat, pressure, and age eventually cause the thin composite material to expand and split, leading to boost loss, check engine lights, or limp mode.
The BAVMODS® Upgraded Aluminum Chargepipe solves that permanently.
CNC-bent from high-strength aluminum and finished in a sleek matte black powder coat, this chargepipe not only looks OEM+ under the hood — it’s built to outlast the car.
Engineered for Strength and Performance
- Full Metal Construction: Unlike the brittle factory plastic pipe, our precision-formed aluminum tube will never crack, warp, or separate from the throttle body under high boost.
- Improved Boost Reliability: Reinforced couplers and high-tolerance flanges ensure an airtight seal, preventing boost leaks that rob horsepower.
- High-Temperature Resistance: Handles extreme under-hood heat without fatigue or deformation — perfect for tuned vehicles running higher PSI.
- OEM+ Design: Maintains the same geometry and fitment as the factory pipe for a clean, factory-style installation.
- Enhanced Throttle Response: Smoother internal walls improve airflow velocity, reducing lag and delivering sharper turbo response.
Why Aluminum Over Plastic?
BMW’s stock chargepipes are lightweight — but fragile. Plastic expands and contracts with heat cycles, slowly weakening at the throttle-body joint until it fails.
When that happens, your car instantly loses boost pressure and can even trigger a “Charge Pressure Control” or “Boost Leak” fault.
Our upgraded black aluminum chargepipe eliminates that risk entirely.
It’s built to withstand tuned boost levels, extreme heat, and long-term stress, making it the go-to solution for anyone running a tune, larger turbo, or simply wanting peace of mind.
Complete OEM+ Installation Kit
Every kit includes everything you need for a perfect install — no trips to the parts store mid-project:
- Premium silicone couplers
- Metal T-bolt clamps
- Mounting hardware, O-rings, and seals
- All fittings pre-welded and pressure-tested
It’s a true plug-and-play upgrade that installs cleanly in place of your OEM pipe, using the same mounting points and sensors.
Performance You Can Trust
This isn’t just an aesthetic upgrade — it’s a structural one.
Whether you’re running a stock tune or a full Stage 2 setup, your turbo system depends on boost stability. The BAVMODS® Black Aluminum Chargepipe ensures your car performs the same on the 100th pull as it did on the first.
Your turbo deserves confidence — not compromise.
