Nah, just good timing. I happened across it looking at the options again just now. He should still try it and report back!

Sell them to the rhd and z4 guys if they can fit. Nothing ever seems to fit those cars, I feel bad for them. They have fitment PTSD

Wont fit RHD due to steering shaft and box. Turbo is exactly in the wrong spot for us RHD cars.

Z4 guys may have a chance with the room they have.

Definitely need to make clear the pricing on these. It’s not any turbo you want for $2900. That’s a basic journal bearing turbo in the smallest size I would assume. $4300 was the number I saw posted on Facebook with the more expensive turbos.

Regardless, looks relatively easy to install and straightforward. Good if you just need a manifold especially.

This person said the install was uneventful:

Am told silicone pieces should be arriving in about 2 weeks.

Honestly I don't know. Is it yours?

Nope, very happy with my ACF top mount kit. But if I was in the market I would really consider the Speedtech kit. I hope it takes all of the business away from the 'upgraded' stock frame manufacturers. The price point is good.

https://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1404220 <-- Go to to last page to see that same picture. I assume I am allowed to link to e90post here?

Of everyone talking about race cah builds his is one of the most thought out I have seen for an N54 powered car. Then again, there have been very few and far between over the years. Probably because of that thing called the m3 w/ S65.

Might ask/suggest to him to post over here? It sure is more technical.

Hey guys, that’s my car

Correct on the GTX3076r Gen 2. We‘re going for max responsiveness over max power with a goal of 500-550whp. As for the SpeedTech kit, we haven’t yet run it as the rest of the car is being built... but given the simplicity of hard parts paired with proven reliability of the few moving parts (Garrett turbo, Turbosmart WG, etc) we don’t anticipate much of a headache with this kit. Will gladly report once we get some miles on her. Here are a few pics of where the build is at right now...

Mocked up custom rear diffuser, custom setrab p/s cooler (needed with the added front tire width), Klaus Composites custom full CF front splitter, full cage, fire suppression, custom dash and infinity more other goodies.

And that’s a pic of my little dude who loves coming with me to the shop. By age 2 he could tell you every make and most models of cars. I’m in danger!
