E9X CHARGE PIPE INSTALL GUIDE

Thank you for ordering an ARM Charge Pipe for your E-Series BMW!  This Install Guide will help you make the installation quick and easy.  

STEP 1: Remove the intake system.  Whether you have an upgraded intakeor stock airbox, removal of the stock airbox is necessary to access the charge pipe.  

STEP 2: Install the included O-ring into the charge pipe's throttle body connection.

STEP 3: Tighten any unused meth bungs with the included caps. 

STEP 4: Remove the OEM C-clip from the OEM Charge Pipe and install it onto the ARM Charge Pipe.



STEP 5: Remove the OEM MAP sensor from the OEM Charge Pipe and install it onto the ARM Charge Pipe using the included Hex screws.



STEP 6: If reusing the OEM lower intercooler piping you will want to use the included reducer coupler.  If you have the ARM Hose Upgrade, you will not need to use the reducer coupler included with the Charge Pipe Kit, the Charge Pipe will connect directly to the Hose Upgrade.  In either case, make sure to install the clamp onto the coupler before installing the charge pipe into the coupler.



STEP 7: (N55 Skip This Step) Use the included Inlet Caps and clamps to seal off the recirculating connection on the OEM inlets. 




STEP 8: Lubricate the throttle body O-ring with a dab of engine oil before installing, then install the Charge Pipe to the throttle body. 

STEP 9: Reconnect the MAP Sensor. 

Step TiAL Flange CP with BOV

Install the Oring on the Charge Pipe

Then you will want to put the V-band on the charge pipe

Place the BOV onto the CP and line up the clamp and the seat

You will then need to tighten this down with the 4 Allen Key

Then you will need to connect the vacuum line from the top of the BOV to the intake nipple as shown below

Then you will just need to tighten the worm clamps on both ends
