I just replaced them with brand new stock oem turbos that I bought for $500. But I will be upgrading to the TD04 MMP turbo kit once mauricio releases them.

Wow that's a good deal, where did you get them from for $500?? I was looking for some stock replacements but couldn't find anything under $1000...

Also, how many miles on the stock ones, and why did you replace them..?? Smoking I assume..??

I got it from a buddy that works at bmw. I could probably get another set of turbos if your interested. I replaced mine cause it was starting to smoke and wasn't boosting properly. It only hit about 9-10 psi. They had 79k miles on them
