either way, this is no doubt a sick setup but to say a S/C will never beat turbo ever is nigh on ignorant......

op i love the car, love the turbo setup, your car is awesome.... well done :-)

I wasn't trying to argue with you, I never said anything about a S/C will never beat turbo, I just saw some inconsistencies in your post and corrected it. That's all!

Looked like his turbo conversion on the E90 is also nearly done, would be interesting to see what that does.

Anyway very nice car bud and hopefuly chat at the next bmw club day.
Awsome. Yeah will take you. What work you doin on your car?

Na nothing - just got him to look over it for me now that it is out of motorplan.
Pretty keen on picking up some different cans though but they are pretty pricey here in SA and difficult to part with that much cash not knowing if you will like the sound...

Turbo makes it sound like a jet taking off. Nice build, serious balls out power there.

Question - you rebuild that engine to strengthen internals? I gotta believe that's not being done with a stock block and internals. If it is though, aren't you concerned with longevity? I mean, catastrophic failure has to be a reality with that kind of power on a stock half block/lower end.

Along those lines, any mods to drive train?

Z4MPora will know all the details however based on when I spoke to Sav about the turbo kit my understanding is that block is standard, but pretty much all of the internals are replaced.

Clutch also replaced if memory serves me correctly

You're going to have to e-mail Sav I guess. But I remember stage 1 being about $10k USD shipped, ready to plug & play (including a tune).
