turbo rocks!!!!

i hope BMW continues this trend..don't want to be left behind in turbocharging technology.if things look good in this department,there might be hope yet for BMW,in my eyes at least..

305bhp from a 3.0 ain't that great though..still a long way to go.

i'll be having 340bhp from my 2.0 by the end of the week,simple mods only..

care to share mod list?
itchified oledi...

BMW insider mentioned the twin-turbos on the N54 engine is OEM custom made for BMW (BMW designs and specs). One of the supply sources was mentioned as Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI), not sure who the other suppliers are. So they are definitely not off-the-shelf bolt on parts.

not too sure 'bout that..turbo units are normally made by specialists.for instance Subaru uses mostly IHI,Mitsi goes for Garrett.there are also tuners that does their own turbos,HKS for one.
if BMW makes theirs,they sure do have a lot of dough..

would be good if there is a link..the turbos looks pretty small,like those on a certain twinturbo V6 by Mitsi.
 
Aiya, a BMW is luxury sports sedan. How can it be compared to a STi? Its two entirely different market segments. 305bhp from a 3 liter engine coupled with two small turbos may not seemed much, barely breaking the magical 100bhp/liter but I believed its designed to cruise at high speeds on the autobahn for a long period of time.

I didn't say BMW made their own turbos, they outsource to Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (appointed OEM supplier) and 1-2 other suppliers (not sure who). The turbos are custom with BMW specs/requirements.

MHI has tons of exprience with turbos in OEM applications:

Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) takes pride in producing high quality turbos that are reliable, high tech, compact and light weight.

Since 1957, we are the leading manufacturer of the small sized turbo for passenger car engines. MHI is able to design a turbo that meets any customer requirement via our extensive knowledge of the engine and turbo, as well as a broad matching data.

MHI turbo are produced under the strictest quality in the Sagamihara factory in Japan using the latest technology.

Simplified turbo designs allow assembly by robots to achieve the world’s highest quality standards and reliability.

yeah i knew that..wasn't comparing the cars in its entirety per se but merely putting things into perspective.i've owned a few bimmers myself remember??

now a 2.5 inline 6 twin turbo with 300bhp from BMW would be yummy though.but the way car prices are going,i don't think it will be within grasp to many..would be great though.
 
Its official E92 335i is as fast as the E46 M3...beats M3 in top gear acceleration!


275 hp at rear wheels, and 300 lb-ft of torque:
"A few quick taps on our trusty calculator shows that this engine is likely putting out closer to 350 hp and 360 lb-ft of torque." !!!!

Also, 0-60 in 5.1 sec, and 1/4 in 13.6

Yup, as a matter of fact some of the popular turbos in the market are made by MHI as well...guess which one??:D

Cool...I agreed for the price, STi is a cool car to drive and own. And HP is cheap, simple mods here and there, and the car will be flying:)
