gtstarped 73 Report post Posted October 30, 2012 Hey guys, Whats the part number I need for this for my M52. I pulled off a M50B20 version and realised its smaller than the M50B25. I'd like to off part numbers. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gtstarped 73 Report post Posted October 31, 2012 Yep on the Shore. I've got a M50B20 (vanos) intake from a 320i which now that I've removed appears to have significantly smaller "vains" that the M50B25 (non vanos) I have sitting next to it. Should have measured first. The ports and throttle wholes are the same sizes just the pipes/ vains to the engine. Anyone else done this and what model/ part number did you use? Obviously makes sense to use the bigger one, just didn't realise that the b20 had a smaller intake the b25, thought it was defined via M50 and M52, appears not.
