The turbo worked but I had to replace the compressor housing, and the wastegate was bent, also none of the hardware was correct for mounting it. It all ='s junk.
@masterymatty Im going to dyno it when i go to school. If your right im gna be a bit pissed off lol but thanks for your honesty and knowledgable explanation!
@romanosalim i find your 208bhp hard to believe, also anyone who dyno's a car at the wheels then converts it to hypothetical engine bhp is silly lol. with those mods you would have maybe 180-190bhp tops.
While this is a low yield setup it is using stock ecu, if they upped the boost and used a proper ecu they could see 250whp+ (312bhp if you want to do flywheel estimate)
for one, this is WHEEL hp, so its probably around 240-250bhp, and your car started with 168hp, the intake prolly added 5, exhaust 5, plugs NONE, and remap around 10, so that puts you at 188bhp and around 150hp wheel, so in other words the gain would be alot more then 3hp :)
Ok so Im confused. My 325i is running 208bhp with a remap, iridium plugs, k&n signature intake, exhaust system. $650. This is for $1600 and its an extra 3bhp? I am not being a dick but is this a 325i the kit was put on or a 318i?
I’m happy with my 325i, but the only performance mods are sport suspection and the Signature Motoring performance intake for about $150. Signature Motoring kit adds around 9HP on the dyno, great sound, and the best performance upgrade for the money. See my channel videos!
-Adds 9HP average
-Never replace filter again (uses K&N filter)
-GREAT SOUND
-Installs in maybe 30-45 min. K&N filter lasts a lifetime.

I'm thinking maybe performance exhaust, but eh.
