Im interested how much mor power do you think you will get from the turbos
I have a 335i in the uk

I plan on doing the standard mods
Jb4
Down pipes
Meth injection

But I don't think that will help stop the car fealing breathless top end

I mean it has a nice run from 2500 to 5500 then it's dies off to 7000

So hybrid turbos might be the last thing I need power wise
Thear a nothing wrong with the car I am just used to my last car

Abarth 500 with 395 hp 338ftlb

Can't wait to see how these turbos perform.

btw with a little more research I found a few great diy turbo swap threads, if you plan on doing this upgrade and have the time and resources I highly recommend doing this job yourself its more intimidating and time consuming than difficult.
Agreed, I did my own and other than the time, it was so worth it. Dealers quoted 6-6,500.....I came in at 1800....rebuilt my stocks with billet compressors, new wastegate actuators and hardware. Now I think I could do it all in one day if I had all parts and 8 hours without my wife or kids around. I plan on doing RB's but I'm gonna check these puppies out!
