N53 Intake Boot Silencer Delete
Forgive me if this is the wrong section,
But has anybody done a intake silencer boot delete on the N53? Any negatives to this? The silicone pipes are available for the N52, would this also fit the N53? The length and dia. The part number for the 52 and 53 are different on realoem |

Yes I've done it (on an N53). Can't honestly say I noticed any difference in noise or performance...

I'm aware of the mishimoto but has anybody used any of these flexi silicone tubes? Says it doesn't collapse under pressure etc.
If these do work, it would just be a matter of measuring the diameter etc. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/202755389127 |

Two things:
1) Those on your eBay link aren't big enough (in diameter) 2) It's ages since I fitted mine, but I'm pretty sure the throttle body end is a larger diameter than the MAF end. And it also helps to have a hose with the 'bend' built in. A bit like this one (though unavailable): https://www.amazon.co.uk/Custom-Sili.../dp/B06Y1TTW4Y Just my five penn'orth...

rev motoring listing that says it's available. I think you can get it direct from rev motoring on ebay for less, that's where I got mine. |
