N52 afe magnum force stage 2 intake
Is anyone familiar with this intake on the n52? I’m installing it on my buddy’s car but having a problem booking up the filter hose to the throttle body adapter.
I’m about an inch or two from setting the filter hose flush on the throttle body adapter. My question is.. do I need to use a stock oem hose piece that connects to the throttle body than put the adapter on or does the adapter sit flush on the throttle body cause if it does I can’t get it flush I’m thinking I’m suppose to use part of the stock oem hose. Any insight?

I m trying to remember but i thought there was an issue with the old version of this afe 2. I almost pulled the plug on one and the seller was telling me his was an older version but he had the adapter
I believe this issues was revised on the newer version.... this is the only thing i have found https://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1101571 |

That post is over 4 years old. I would think he has the newer version. I am not sure where he bought it I will find out. But it still is the urethane sdapter

Still having an issue... I can get it in “pretty good” but like I’m that other thread the guy says he screws the clamp down and the hose pops out. Similier to my issue. Fitmint on this unit has not been very good.
Question - is the intake box even needed? Could I just run the intake filter/hose connected to throttle body? The MAF sensor plugs into that hose so not missing out on that. Kinda like the Bms dual cones for the n54 |
