Just installed 2" inlets

[N54TT]

Hey members,

Just installed 2" vrsf inlets with the Precision Raceworks adapters. Should i get a custom tune or just run the ots maps?
Current mods: DCI, cat-less down-pipes, 2" inlets, 5" IC, Stage 2 lpfp, E50, and MHD stage 2+ ots flash.

Custom tune. It's small money. Might as well get the max out of your setup.

My advice, don't go with a no name Instagram tuner.

Hi friends
I don't want to pollute the post but I have a question
I received my inlets in 2 "because I thought I would quickly go to step 3
unfortunately it will wait.
Is there a cheap, home-made solution to go from 1.75 "to 2"?
the PRECISION kit is good but with the transport it costs me almost 100 dollars
I'm just asking for a temporary solution
if you have ideas, photos, links do not hesitate to share them with me
thank you

Hi, try to use the OEM Rubber seal from the stock inlets.

I slipped my 2" inlets over the stock turbos using the oem seal with zero issues.

Hi friends
that's it, I finally have my 335i and I start to install my parts
I attack the assembly of the inlets in 2 ', I kept the original seal
on the other hand when I tighten the collar the hose comes out, it does not hold
yet I have degreased
do you have any advice?

Hmmm.... make sure it's pushed all the way on before you tighten and don't over tighten. I can't remember if there is a taper or not that might affect installation. Make sure the clamp is not wider than the flange as well.

ok i will control all that
thank you

I have a quick question about inlets 2 '
I had a lot of difficulty installing the one behind the engine, it annoyed me
so my question; Is it boring to install regardless of the supplier or is it because I bought Chinese?

Rear is a pain in the ass, no matter what brand.
Unless you do it the same time you are doing motor mounts.

The rear inlet is always difficult. Easier if it's on a manual car, but still difficult. Doesn't matter who makes it.

On my 535i I had to tie a heavy rope around the inlet and pull it through with all my weight on it. As well as greasing it up. Once it popped into the right spot it wasn't too bad to get it on the turbo.

It reassures me
me it's a bva
I had to lower the engine cradle and the gearbox support to have a little space

Oh... wow! That is a good way to do it too.

it's me again
do you have a solution so that the calorstat hose does not rub on the inlet?
