So I saw someone bought a CTS Turbo fmic in another forum and installed it on his X3 35i, I went ahead and ordered one lucky for me they are having a sale until March 9th & I reached out to CTSTurbo for a GroupBuy. I went on and ordered it, 3-4 days later arrived with Free shipping from Canada big shout outs to Clay@CTSTurbo for providing this + free shipping and receiving it within 3-4 days.
Knowing that CTS Turbo is a big contender in the VW/Audi community, I was looking for reviews for a few months since a forum member wrote up a nice review on their Intake (only fits F22/F30) and the fmic thats made for F22/F30

After getting the details of what was needed to fit the CTS Turbo intercooler into X3/X4, I took it to my preferred local Fab shop who are experts with taking Porsches to 1000whp+ level. Chatted with them on Monday, made an appt for Today(wednesday) they were nice enough to drop me off at work (avoiding me needing to get a rental for a few hrs, they're 9 miles away). These guys did their magic since it required a little work to fit our car. Before end of day and got a text message with pictures of every angle WOW! (will upload these later)
Having already a great experience last October when I met them and got a Custom Catless Downpipe for my car (X4 M40i already comes with a MPerformance MTuned exhaust from factory) this downpipe frees up ponies & more sound.
I will posting the pictures later on today when I get home and in the mean time if anyone wants to look at some temps how the IC works here's a post from another forum member
