Question Fmic On N55

Hey guys I was wondering would any of the FMIC for the N54 fit the N55? I really like the HPF version. The plans that I have for my car I really want to get a FMIC.

The FMIC itself will fit. You will need some custom piping made though

^ ahah thats the spirit, cars not even in the driveway and you already have all the mods planned. Just like I did

PM me if youd like any help. Either way, with the HPF you are going to have to cut a lot off that new car of yours to get it to fit.

On this engine they can make a good intake I think looks really easy to make something nice and that actually works to give power. just my 0.02 cents

So hard to tell, looks close.



Since we provide a pipe on the driver side, it looks like it may be the best bet, but I can't say if it will fit. Still looks off to me. If anyone has a N55 and is local, let me know! I will make you a deal.

First time I've driven my car at night in 70 degrees weather. What a huge difference in power. Looks like I may need a fmic in the future.

Just a curious thought, and not one that I expect anyone to act on, but I wonder if the X5's IC (which is larger than the 335's by the way) could be retrofitted onto the 335... I plan on going custom for my FMIC pretty soon, but would be interesting to see if the X's IC would be an alternative for 135's and 335's...

orly?>>
would u happen to know how much bigger -
i'm look'n it up now.


on a side note:
stated by harold@hp that a larger
radiator would be beneficial for cooling -
see that engine temps seem to handle better on the
N55 -
