    745i Intake Manifold compatibility

    A year or two ago i swapped over my throttle body to the other side of the intake in order to run a bigger turbo and a FMIC. In doing so, I made the opening a tad too high. The cable will rub on the manifold when depressing on the gas. Not a huge deal, but I want to try again.



    I'm looking for a manifold that will work. I have a spare b35 intake manifold, but that clearly won't work. I have a friend selling one of his 87 535i, but it looks a tad different. Is my only option from a 745i?

    The one off the e28

    Thumbs up

    The 745i uses a specific part due to the extra vacuum tit as I recall.

    Standard B34 unit is the same, just minus the extra port. Depending on your vacuum supply needs, you can always add one by drilling and tapping a hole...I doubt you need the 745i unit as you are running a totally different turbocharger system now and MS2.
    I make E23 parts.
