You should definitely consider replacing this TIC pipe at higher miles, especially if you're running additional boost.

$200 and I'll ship to you...Its brand new, never installed.

Think about how likely this component is to warp, leak or otherwise rob you of power or make those extra few psi a little tougher to reach...

It's a plastic and rubber pipe running from the hot side of your turbo to the IC.

I experienced a fairly undetectable leak that was capping my psi about 1-2 below its usual. I've read of other completely blowing there's off (pretty rare tho).

Also, I'm sure a lot of you know, but people have been using the bottom half of this oem TIC pipe and replacing the forward portion with a higher flow metal pipe. It's usually people running the high flow turbo inlet pipe and they don't want a potential bottleneck after the turbo...if I remember correctly you have to get the exact right angle elbow coupler to make it fit...Just FYI, Evolution Raceworks has been selling a plug n play high flow TIC pipe for a while.

Anyway, this is a good preventative mod OEM replacement.

Thanks for looking at my sale/PSA haha.

This is a brand new BMW OEM Part.

If you were to split the two sections and replace the plastic tubing with an elbow coupler you'd have the home made version of the high flow TIC.
