New turbos needed so advice for an upgrade
Thanks in advance for any help
I currently have a 2008 135i N54. I've sorted the ride with a birds suspension and LSD package. Also installed is a JB4. So one of the turbos is on its way out so need some advice on upgrading up to £10000 to spend but its a daily ride so would be handy if I could use the JB4 to bring it back to around 350BHP. I'm looking at upgrading brakes also within the £10000 budget. And want to run on super unleaded no fuel additives as my wife uses the car while I'm away working. Cheers Steve |

I just went through the same. My turbos aren't bad yet but are dying a slow death.
There are a ton of options out there. I emailed every turbo company. Got all of their options and made a decision. Sounds like you are looking for an oem setup. Email some of the turbo companies. They will give you plenty of options and give them your budget and power needs. And you get a better deal if you talk to them from just ordering online. I went with RB. Just felt the most comfortable with Rob. He's not looking to get every last hp out of the car and is most concerned with the car and his turbos running for as long as possible. Good luck |

Id look into Pure, RB, or Hydra. Or consider a small single turbo kit from speedtech. What to stay away from: MMP, VTT, anything Chinese or any small companies using Chinese cast manifolds/compressor housings, there's a lot out there. Stick with the three mentioned first if buying twins.
Should have no problem doing it all on 10k UK, that's a lot of money.
