Nice ride you got. Did you get rid of the 9th you were building.

That's a nice place to start for a new project @ripply!

The ninth is sitting still torn apart haha. I'll put it together whenever I find time. I'm keeping the ninth bone stock and having it as a daily. And the plan is to do a M clone on the BMW and single turbo conversion and make 6-700whp again lol. Stock block and trans though

Just curious. There any reason you chose an earlier model with an N54 if you planned on going single turbo anyways?

That's a given, just never came across someone mentioning a single turbo build.

It's a much sturdier and mod friendly engine. I can go with a twin turbo setup, but a single turbo is more efficient. Remember, it's an inline 6cyl engine. It will be able to spool any decently sized turbo relatively quick.

Honestly this isn't too far off from the price of a prl kit.. Also there's a cheaper kit which I have my eyes set on. It's the DOC Race kit. Comes with everything necessary to make 6-650rwhp and it costs 5K with the BB turbo. If I chose a JB turbo the kit is only $4.5K

Not a big fan of the log manifold. Especially for that cost . It's just like a log manifold on a K series. Chokes the motor and produces excessive heat and high IATs. Look at the manifold that comes with the DOC kit
