e92 single turbo EOI
Hey Guys,
I have a 2008 E92 M sport in sapphire black with black interior.(auto Trans) Car has sun roof and all the other goodies. I have recently done a big single turbo conversion with a 6266 precision and all custom work, has a VSRF 7" cooler , fule it stage 2 bucketless pump and some other fruit. I purchased the car in January for 37'000. I was wondering with this modification what you guys would think it would be worth to sell? I know modifications don't nessceraliy add value but surely someone would pay to have a single turbo 335i?? Please let me know opinions ![]() |

Honestly a single turbo conversion would scare most people off
Regardless of how well its done I'd always be wary of a custom build where so much stuff has changed, and all the stuff I don't know about. On a stock vehicle its a known quantity, on a single turbo conversion you have all this custom stuff which can be hard to troubleshoot unless its not the same person who built it. A person who has not much experience with these cars would have a massive learning curve to troubleshoot any issues, so for a new owner with no experience on this platform it'd be a hard sell. You'd have to wait quite a long time for the right buyer I reckon. Parting it out is another option but I know first hand how much labour it is to rip all that stuff out.

Why do you want to sell it when you have only just installed the ST? I thought you would like to enjoy the car for a while with the extra power. Have you done any data logs with the ST that you would like to share?

Would love to see what you have done Vince makes a good point, they require another level for trouble shooting but I'm sure there would be some interest..... ![]() |
