N55 Turbo upgrade. Need a car around the 1st of the year

So anyone on the forums with an N55 who is interested in being the test car for the N55 upgrade please contact me and let me know. This will be around the 1st of the year as that should be when the N54 stuff is pretty handled and I can look elsewhere. I will need the car for at least a month and the plan is to do a New manifold, turbo, DP, etc. Basically a new kit using a BW twin scroll EFR turbocharger that will support between 400-600HP. If anyone is interested as I said let me know. You can PM me or email me at Tony@vargasturbo.com

This is amazing news! Tony @ Vargas is first to step up to the plate on the N55 turbo upgrade and officially ask for a test car. I can't send mine, but for those who live in other states, can't you ship the car to Vargas?

Either one will work fine. I have one guy from the bay who is interested, if he doesn't do it looks like I have enough people to make it happen. This WILL happen once I get these N54 turbos more locked in. You guys need it.
