The VA Motorsports BMW N20 CHARGE PIPE KIT F2X F3X is a high-performance upgrade designed to deliver enhanced reliability, optimized airflow, and improved durability for BMW’s turbocharged N20 engine. Specifically engineered to fit models such as the F20 and F21 (125i), F22 and F23 (220i, 228i), F30 and F31 (320i, 328i), and F32, F33, and F36 (420i, 428i), this charge pipe kit replaces the factory-installed plastic components with durable, high-flow aluminium pipes. Whether you’re maintaining a stock configuration or pushing your engine’s limits with tuning and performance modifications, this kit ensures consistent power delivery and robust reliability.
The BMW N20 CHARGE PIPE KIT addresses the well-known weakness of the OEM plastic charge pipes, which are prone to cracking or failure under the increased pressures and temperatures common in turbocharged applications. Constructed from lightweight yet strong aluminium, this kit ensures superior resistance to heat, pressure, and vibration. The TIG-welded construction guarantees structural integrity and long-term performance, while the smooth, mandrel-bent design minimizes turbulence, promoting more efficient airflow to the turbocharger. This translates into reduced turbo lag, improved throttle response, and enhanced power output across the RPM range.
Designed to support higher boost levels, this charge pipe kit is particularly valuable for drivers seeking to unlock additional performance from their N20 engine through tuning or other upgrades. The robust construction ensures reliable operation even under increased pressures, making it a critical component for high-performance applications. Additionally, the kit includes provisions for water-methanol injection, offering flexibility for advanced tuning setups and further power-enhancing modifications.
The VA Motorsports CHARGE PIPE KIT is precision-engineered for a seamless fit with the N20 engine across the F2X and F3X platforms. It includes premium silicone couplers and stainless-steel clamps, ensuring a leak-free and secure connection capable of withstanding high boost pressures. Designed as a direct bolt-on replacement for the OEM pipes, the kit integrates effortlessly with factory mounting points and sensors, requiring no additional modifications. Its straightforward installation process makes it ideal for both professional installers and experienced DIY enthusiasts.
In addition to its functional benefits, this charge pipe kit enhances the aesthetic appeal of your engine bay. The pipes are finished with a durable powder coating that resists corrosion and maintains a sleek appearance, even under demanding conditions. Available in polished or matte finishes, the kit adds a premium, high-performance touch that complements the sporty nature of your BMW.
The kit is specifically tailored to fit a wide range of BMW models equipped with the N20 engine, including the F20/F21 (125i), F22/F23 (220i, 228i), F30/F31 (320i, 328i), and F32/F33/F36 (420i, 428i). Whether you’re focused on daily reliability or seeking a performance edge for spirited driving or track days, this charge pipe kit ensures your engine remains efficient, responsive, and reliable under all conditions.

PREPREG is a common term for a reinforcing fabric such carbon which has been pre-impregnated with a resin system. This resin system (typically epoxy) already includes the proper curing agent. As a result, the prepreg is ready to be laid into the mold without the addition of any more resin. In order for the laminate to cure, an autoclave production process is used, a combination of high pressure and heat.
- Maximum strength and performance characterictics. In a hand layup production process, it is difficult to achieve 50% fabric and 50% resin content. Typical hand laminates, even when vacuum bagged, end up with a significant amount of excess resin. Excess resin increases brittleness and reduces overall strength properties. On the other hand, most prepregs contain around 35% resin. This is ideal for maximum cured properties and generally impossible to achieve in normal hand lamination.
- Uniformity and repeatability. The prepreg is of uniform thickness and each part coming out of the mold may theoretically be the same. Vacuum bagging technology may have some errors in processing, but prepreg ensures production consistency.
- Reduce curing time. After the thermal curing cycle, no need to wait for the standard 48 hours can be fully cured.
- Aesthetics. Although prepreg processing still requires mold preparation and demoulding, prepreg processing eliminates air bubbles, makes it easier to obtain a smooth, glossy surface as well as eliminates any seaming lines.
