i know in the corners i'm not gonna get close because the chassis dynamics of the 1 series just is no were near that of a porsche 911, but in the straights i would like to hang which is what i had stated.
european cars are alway's expensive to modify compared to the japanese market, i know it's expensive to mod a beemer especially, but at the end of the day i get paid well and bust my ass for the money i get so saving and spending a large amount of money into something that i want doesn't really bother me. As far as the stock turbo's go i would like to keep the exhaust side stock but with a new wheel and compressor housing, i am praying to god that there are turbo's out there that match up with the N54's, from what i have read the injectors are close to maxing out at 400hp on the procede. from what i have read (i may be wrong so correct me if i am) they are at 80-85% duty cycle on the injectors at 400hp, direct injection isn't soemthing i have had to mess with at toyota but i'm not scared to research for upgrades or find out what i would need to do to make them flow better/more.
