Description
VTT silicone inlets are the premier choice for your N54 inlet needs. Made from high quality, wire impregnated silicone, these inlets are a full 6mm thick, and can withstand even the harshest underhood conditions.
With silicone inlets you do not get any heat soak which can raise IAT’s on aluminum, or steel inlets, that are positioned directly above the hottest part of the engine bay.
When choose your inlet kit, please choose which kit is best suited to your needs. All the VTT inlets run in the stock location for a stock appearing engine bay, but we offer a choice of Recirculating for factory style DV’s, or a BOV for people using aftermarket charge pipes with a BOV. Select the proper choice from the drop downs below.
For the PTC heater that is in the stock rear inlet tube, this is only needed if you are NOT running an OCC, and live in climates that see below 32F, or 0C. If you meet either of those requirements select the proper options below.
For DV choice, the only kit we recommend is the Turbosmart BMW N54 Plumb Back Recirculating BOV (135i, 335i & Z4), this kit comes with everything needed, including high quality silicone hoses to connect to your new Recirc VTT inlets. We do not recommend Forge DV’s, or the stock units, as both have shown to be troublesome. The stock units leak above 15 psi, and the Forge units need constant service to remain in good working order.
We also offer high a quality Dual cone filter option with the inlets which are a great addition to your inlet purchase.
Please Note: Please make sure to select your correct model, as the pipes do differ.
