Updates!!!!!!

Right off the bat you will notice the twin wastegate mounts. We decided to go with this design for flawless and ease of boost control. You’ll then notice the smoother twin scroll division. This served two purposes; faster spool up and allows a plethora of turbo chargers to be used with our kit. As mentioned before, we’ll be using a dual ball bearing 6466 divided turbo with our initial kit. We will definitely be testing other turbos as we develop more stages for the kit.

The runners are also nearly equal, that is always beneficial. With the manifold now in our hands, we are just in need of closing up lose ended projects before we can fully dive right into finishing the 335i kit. As always, we’ll be updating you as progress happens. Also we do plan on selling some components separately for those that would like to choose their own turbo and tune on their own.

thank you for your service. i'm sure since they've only had 4 years to develop your car, by the time you get back from this tour, they should have it back to you within 2-3 years. you must be thrilled.

What? LOL

Poor Eric, these guys have had his car so damn long!
You would think a company like HPF would have their own project car.
Ps: thank you for your service Eric, even though I am not American, I highly respect you for what you are doing, hopefully your car is ready soon!

HPF is the Shit man, the guys there are great and they have done a lot for me over the years. I understand the kit is not done yet, this suck. But, there is a lot you don't know about this build. Some/a lot of the delay is my fault. I had a lot of repairs that needed to be made before they could get started and some of these vehicle issues were discovered during the build process which again set HPF back.

The fact that they never blamed me yet took the abuse and responsibility for failure from the forums means a lot to me.

Other than the Mani set backs, this long process is my fault. don't blame HPF, lets move forward.

Side note, I might be going Wide body. Has anyone ever herd of lance@sscamerica.com?

LOL, this thread is like a Vice Presidential debate.

Updates Kirk?

HPF Kirk · 10-24-2012, 11:10 AM

The position of the turbocharger had to be slightly changed which means we are in the process of relocating a hard coolant line that also supplies cooling for the stock turbos. We are having to make new intercooler piping and adjust/remake a few other things as well. Progress is definitely not as fast as I was hoping but we do have customers cars to finish as well so More updates to come in the next week or two...
