I hope you have a vendor in mind for some axles LOL. Good luck. That was my exact plan too with the 3.5 bar MAP and G5 + Flash and 23psi @ ~4500 RPM.

Very nice. I'm in need of a tranny rebuild too. Evo tranny upgrade is much cheaper than 335i tranny upgrade.

Question , I have plan on installing a stage 3 cylinder head and new Vargas turbos.
Is it possible to install turbos to head , then head to engine block?

In theory its sound very smart , but I am not know in that area and have no clue to what I might encounter.

Anyone?

YOur gonna have One hell of a time aligning that engine head to the BLock.

IMO its MUCH easier to just install the head then the turbos.

turbos aren't THAT hard to replace...

RB's can handle some boost!!

TurboBimmer · 02-28-2013, 01:28 AM

I would install one part at a time to minimize potential issues with either upgrade. And to be able to provide a first-ever review of the benefits of the stage 3 head!
