Has anyone done the install of a charge pipe on the awd e92 n55? Is it the same as the rwd model?
Do you guys think this is something worth doing to a n55 without a tune?

Yes to all. It's a 15 minute job.

I have a e90 335 xdrive and I installed a ER charge pipe and it was very easy, the cheap plastic stock one is crap and tuned or not this is a nice upgrade.

Any noticeable differences? I steered away because I was thinking the oem’s were of no issue with stock boost.

Even on stock boost the N55 CP will eventually fail. They are even flawed on the 2013+ N55 under stock boost.

Yes, with a drop in k&n filter and the CP the throttle response felt crisper.... if that's an accurate description. Haha!
