More and more guys are using them for race engines so the prices are pretty steep.

$20k? there's one on ebay right now for $10k. they aren't that rare, and with the new M3/M4 out, there's no way the values will stay that high. Just look at the S54 - it used to be super expensive, but now you can get them all day long for $2500.

I guess whenever something new is out, old get much cheaper, but still new are always better, and will always be your desire.
BTW, the 25K was for a complete swap bumper to bumper not only the engine

Okay, that is completely insane! It'd be cheaper for us to ship our cars to Egypt, have the work done and then shipped back!

When Roman's got good news I'm sure he will happily share it with us. Until then, good luck fine tuning the details!

It was all a dream I used read ESS magazines, superchargered n52s with the whining tease. Lmao

Delta0311 · 09-07-2014, 06:39 AM

It's starting to look like the ESS SC is just a giant dick tease.

It'll happen. Just give it time. They are busy releasing other products that are more expensive

Tim07e90 · 09-07-2014, 03:01 PM

To be honest, considering the time frame, it probably wouldn't be released until Bimmerfest West 2015. That'll give them time to release it in front of thousands.

E46driver · 09-07-2014, 11:30 PM

I hope the 28 series sc gets done before the end of the year. If it doesn't ill probably just build it n/a. I've been holding off on all performance mods because of this thread but SS headers are just so tempting!

They mentioned the 3 stage intake manifold not making a difference, but I don't recall seeing any info about having headers + the SC kit.
Does anyone know if having cat-less headers would benefit/not make a difference with this SC kit?

Sweet, thanks for the reply.
@E46Driver, looks like you got the green light on those headers then. Unless you're planning on one or the other.

E46driver · 09-08-2014, 03:26 AM

well see by the end of the year, if i had the SC i don't think i'd get the headers cause the sound would be a little different would it not?

you can get afe headers. I think those come with high flow cats. I'd get rid of the sec cats and resonator, and maybe an aftermarket market muffler first.

This conversation is like 2 years ahead of the game lol
