The 4 series chassis is definitely not the inheritor of the e9x chassis and never will. Even if you based that on looks the 4 anything loses.

I say the 4series looks better in every way. The e92 is starting to look dated

Agreed. I'll take a 2 series over the 4 series for my personal taste.

Just because you do not prefer the styling of the 4 series does not determine that it is not the replacement.

Any install guides available to look through or photos of the turbo? Does it include a new exhaust manifold also or we need to figure out a way to connect the new turbo to the original exhaust manifold? Super interested, hoping that a BEF comes available for the F models too so we can get all the cars ready to go

The turbo/exhaust manifold are all one piece. With the stage 1 you just replace the compressor side and exhaust turbine, with stage 2 you replace the whole turbo/manifold.

Dude, the 4 looks absolutely terrible and the chassis is not as balanced as anything in the e9x class.

Now on the other hand, the 1 series looks terrible but was a decent platform, the 2 series is clearly the inheritor in that case. Better chassis, styling and overall finish.

You can not say that from 3 to 4 series. Hell the whole F series (except M) is a fail IMO. Softened up and no longer for the enthusiast....a car for the population, and that sucks.

The PURE Stage 2 install is the same procedure as installing a OE stock turbo. Everything on the turbo fits 100% the same as the stock turbo and also looks 100% same when installed. The installation takes around 7 hours.

Terry's latest JB4 firmware is running VERY well on the F-series with PURE Stage 2. Great boost control, and clean logs running 20+ psi. 3.5 bar N20 tmap sensor support now too.

That is your opinion. I think the 4 series looks really really good.. Look at Jason's 435i from BMS for example.. And where did you get your information that the f chassis is not as balanced as the old 3 series?

Numbers wise the f30 beats the e90 in almost every category,
interior is more modern, exterior styling is personal preference.
Only thing going for it is the steering feel but you do learn to love the electric steering.
