BMS chargepipe short review

Finally got around to upgrading the chargepipe on my 135 N54. Went with the BMS unit due mainly to the DV setup, the dual met bungs (just in case), and the c-clip coupling. Quality of the unit itself is really top-notch, though I would've appreciated nicer t-bolt clamps like on my ETS FMIC (as opposed to the standard cheapies on this BMS unit). Install was pretty straightforward, took less than an hour, going slowly.

The one thing that really surprised me is how much quieter the car is in the cabin with the windows rolled up. I guess that silly contraption on the stock CP must actually be for piping in engine sound. Weird gadget. I guess I rather have the piece of mind that CP won't fall apart on me then having engine sound piped into the cabin.

I didn't take any pictures, sorry. The install was so straightforward, and I was being lazy :-).
