haven't had much time to work on this project but will have some updates soon. im in the process of doing a back end flash and sourcing a reputable tuner in my area. if anyone has some suggestions in the savannah ga area lmk

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!

Sorry you don't like them next time I'll let you pick up the tab on a new set. lol jk man that's my personal style, guys can hate all they want doesn't hurt my feelings. I got a set of advans for when I want to get down to business on track days and stuff.
