Silicone M20 Intake Boot

EXCELLENT. What are the chances they'll be ready by June?

Style 2 and 3 should go in to production by may followed by 4 and 5. I decided to finally start up the business idea I've been toying around with for the last 8 years. "German Engineering" is now official.

According to the first post I need a style 3, but that pic looks different from my engine. I'm too lazy to go out and check it, though. Maybe tomorrow.

But it doesn't look like we'll be getting 20 people per style anyway. :(

yeah, sorry. It sounded like you were shitting on the thread.

No worries, I went back and read it and it did sound like I was just stirring shit up lol.

I'd be in for a black one (no homo lol) if my alternator didn't just take a crap. :hitler:

Someone already posted in the thread that SAMCO already makes one.

EDIT: Went and checked real quick, seems to be for an E36 M42, any difference?

Quite different. I'm not saying it wouldn't work with a little hacking, but it's not ideal.

[Jand3rson]

I wouldn't do it unless you have the i electronics. The duty cycle could be way different between them. Is the e valve 2 or 3 wires?

But there is a T-shaped eta ICV, so I guess I'll just go with that. I'd rather use whatever parts I need to to make it work, rather than waiting for more people who need what I need to get on board, and possibly make it take longer, or not happen at all.

Or I can post and get legitimate reasons as to the benefits of this "mod", which I did. Hell, depending on the benefits, I may decide to buy one. It's not like I said it was a useless pos, jeez. Just wanted to know why it was necessary. Turbo makes perfect sense.

So knowing that, I guess my real question now is can you use the i ICV on an e? Since I have the whole i intake system on my car now, I don't see why it wouldn't work.
