Water/methanol injection kit installation on X5 35d

Has anyone installed a meth kit on the N57 in an X5?, I searched around but couldn’t find a clean way to install.

An aftermarket charge pipe with meth bungs would be ideal but doesn’t look like anyone makes one for the F15 with N57, I don’t want to drill into the intake tract, and need it to be reversible.

Has anyone successfully used an adapter plate or modified a CP from another N57, 335d/535d to work in the X5?

I don't think you can make it reversible. I did WM on my 335d and you need to drill for boost reference and meth nozzle(s). Snow performance makes aluminum bungs that work nicely, they will need to be tig welded.

Subscribed because my 35d will have WM after deletes and interested how everyone did theirs.

I found this:

I can drill into the post inter-cooler silicone pipe (at least it will be cheap to replace to go back to stock) or I can always plug it if i need to do a quick uninstall.

I found this type of coupler with two bungs, one bung can be used for boost reference
I don't know if the size fits the X5, but its an idea.

Currently I have a single stage meth kit from my N54,
need to make it dual stage: small nozzle on all the time, and larger nozzle on only at WOT and then adapt it to the N57
just need an additional solenoid/nozzle and some type of controller, big question on which one.
