Created With Performance In Mind
As is the goal with building any header, the purpose of designing the N52 Performance Header was increase horsepower and improve overall performance. Our header does a tremendous job of freeing up untapped horsepower that the BMW N52 is capable of producing. After many dyno runs and recorded results, the data validates the Active Autowerke N52 Performance Header as must-have BMW performance part for a noticeable and powerful upgrade.
Material & Durability
Suitable for either naturally aspirated or supercharged applications, the N52 Header by Active Autowerke is made entirely of 100% 304 stainless steel. With this header, worrying about durability is a thing of the past.
Installation
Is installing the header difficult to do? Not at all! Robust exhaust flanges with recessed mounting holes make the installation of your N52 Performance Header a breeze. With a few quick turns of a ratchet, you will be well on your way to feeling the additional horsepower.
NOTE:u00a0Active Autowerke GUARANTEES that each and every N52 Performance Header will be a precise fit. Every Active Autowerke N52 Header is test-fitted on our N52 motor jig as part of our quality control.
Hardware:
As far as mounting hardware is concerned, this system is absolutely complete. The BMW N52 engine uses a single-use oval shape gasket to help seal the exhaust manifold against the exhaust port u2013 a floating design that also self-centers the exhaust flange as it is being torqued. Reuse of this gasket is NOT SUGGESTED which is why we provide you with SIX new gaskets as part of the installation hardware.
Also included are two fiber gaskets for where the header meets the remaining sections of the exhaust system. Copper locking nuts for the header to mount against the cylinder head and mounting bolts w/nuts to secure the header to the exhaust system are included as well.u00a0
NOTE:u00a0The factory exhaust catalysts MUST be removed in the process, making this solution recommended for off-road and racing applications ONLY.There will be a CEL without Active Autowerke software upgrade

Since I can remember, BMW has always been a great car but lacks certain components to be truly Ultimate. One being the proverbial oil pressure gauge. To help resolve this dilemma, one has to resort to the aftermarket like VDO, Autometer, AEM, etc. to source such a gauge. You can make your selection based on size, face back light, digital or analog, and electronic or mechanical. Regardless of your selection, you have to tap into the oil artery to monitor the engine oil pressure.
The Active Autowerke ODB, Oil Distribution Block was created just to solve this problem
- With a 12x1.50mm pitch, it mounts in the original position of the factory oil pressure switch, eliminating the need to drill or tap
- Retains the factory oil pressure switch to still satisfy the oil warning light in the instrument cluster
- Has a dedicated port to install an additional electric oil pressure sender or fitting to connect a mechanical oil pressure feed
- Can be used by turbochargers or superchargers requiring an oil feed sourceu00a0
Design feature of the Active Autowerke ODB
- Has to be small and compact. One could drill and tap a block of aluminum to do the task, but... The ODB is the smallest 2 part ODB on the market currently for BMW application today
- With a 2 part unit, the rotating design allows for a FULL 360 degree rotation. This allows the sender (regardless of size) to rotate as it fits against the oil filter housing without any interference
- Engine bay picture shows a BMW E9x M3 S65 V8 with oil pressure sender installed using a ODB-KIT.Look at the space constraints.u00a0small size and flexible 360 degree rotation comes in very handy.u00a0
- CNC machining allows multiple wrench placements to ensure a secure torque
- 12mm x 1.50mm pitch makes the installation factory like for most BMWs
- 1/8-27NPT suitable for most aftermarket senders currently producedu00a0
- Complete with (2) crush rings for a seamless installationu00a0
NOTE:Factory oil pressure sender and / or VDO oil pressure sender NOT INCLUDED with ODB-KITu00a0
