Broke my Chargepipe today...

I was on my way in to work today and went to pass some cars in traffic. I heard a slight pop, then a whoosh and felt a dramatic loss of power. I had a good idea of what happened, and confirmed when I got to work that part of my chargepipe broke off where it connects to the engine.

I went ahead and overnighted one from VRSF, hopefully it will be in tomorrow so I can replace it. I've been running my JB4 on map 5 and planned on getting a new chargepipe later this year, but apparently that wasn't in the cards lol.

Well it is later from when you started planning on it... Lol

I'm guessing you have the 35i?

Yep, I do. Right now it drives just like the 2016 28i I had as a loner ;-)

You should keep an extra Dinan sport tuner in your pocket for loaners, way more fun

Question, after installing the new chargepipe do I need to do anything other than clearing existing codes with my JB4 to get my car out of limp mode?
