There is no one developing a turbo upgrade right now. Vishnu tuning has an ecu stand-alone system witch gives about 380 (estimated) crank HP. That is the only company that has actually been testing their "Xede" for a while. CP-e is reportedly developing a chip, as is Technik. Probably going to be a while for turbo replacement kits.

I know horse power freaks are putting out a turbo kit, which i think they debuted at Sema. However I do hear that it was just show, they havent finished developing it yet. Apparently whenever the boost would kick in the computer would shut off fuel. Sounds like they have a lot on their hands in the way of tuning, which is always the hard part. |

Oh sorry, my bad for the confusion. I think that a couple of companies are coming out with superchargers (Active Autowerke, ESS), and HPfreaks have been working on a turbo for the 330. No real news though. Sorry

I dono but I think BMW is trying to limit aftermarket Superchargers and Turbochragers to Dinan only. I mean they are trying to make it extremly complicated for the aftermarket companies to do these things for these cars. But as usual there is always a way to get around it but this is just what i think.
