Can't wait for the dyno, thanks for sharing. This is exciting developments for the n55, along with the motiv and VM kit releasing this year.

This is the exact turbo I'm interested in right now. I've talked to PTF about it but it seems the process is slow because the guy doesn't have much time to fine tune it. Hopefully they provide a dyno soon on their FB page or site.

Is this something they'll be looking into mass producing for N55 owners? Would love to get that thing strapped on!

I'm guessing once said and done over 600. This is great!

And now Pure Turbos is taking the wraps off their big single too. This is getting interesting!

Yeah Pure is using there custom turbo with jpworkz manifold. I might just swap over to the newer N55 since the manifold will fit the N55.

The thing that concerns me is the Price, I wonder if we can expect this pricing to be around or about what the Pure costs??

I can't see why the pricing would be much different from what the N54 kits cost. I'd expect it to be at least double the Pure Stage 2 price.

This turbo kit is not practical doing it in big numbers for the public
Although it's easy to make
Yes as Dzenno said I don't have time to tune it at all
Sometimes I don't see my car in weeks or months
Due to my work and change of career
But I can tell u this the 9174 works perfect
The problems happen after 550 whp
Then u get misfires as the HPFP isn't able to support any further power
I can make things simple and just tune with E85
But we're I live there is non and I have to depend on methanol injection that plus Dzenno is in Canada
Is making things hard to tune
Though I hit 30 PSI twice but can't go past 5000 RPM till redline with that due to misfires
promise if I had the time I would finish tuning this thing in a week but seriously can't and it's killing me
Specially seeing people talk about my car here and can't make them happy with the results
Btw I am FBO , engine rebuilt with Carrillo pistons and rods and my DCT is superstock from Dodson , promise if I had the time I would finish tuning it but for till I finish my residency application and match process I can't , here we only got 93 octane so I need to depend on the methanol as much as I can
Sorry about that guys

About price
It's a simple manifold nothing fancy
9174 IWG had to cut a bit of the chassis to fit that
PI
COBB and AEM EMS4
For sure u need to custom route the water lines
pure turbo did the same thing but there's is top mount
Mine is bottom mount and no one suspects a thing till my car starts spinning in 3rd gear on R888
Once I am done with the tuning I will somehow send the final manifold and turbo design to PTF and they decide

You know, there happens to be one of the best hospitals in the country in Cleveland, Ohio and they've got a large staff (and a large number of patients) from UAE, Saudi Arabia, and other Middle Eastern countries. If you happen to go there, I might just know a guy who'd be happy to test drive your car at every opportunity you provide.
