How does this kit look for my 328i?
If i put thicker headgasket in i can up the boost without a problem right?
And if i ever want a bigger turbo can i just buy the flange to maybe fit a t3/t4 turbo?
Thanks

i think someone on dtmpower.net got this kit but i'm not sure if it ever got installed. The manifold looks good, but u maybe better off waiting and getting a complete kit with tuning like the TT kit, or AA's stage 2 which is will have a gt35r turbo.:) good luck keep us posted

Ok...dude if your thinking about this Im hoping ur not installing, you dont sound lets say turbo/engine savey....
Plan on 1k for hg install + stud kit to "up the boost" the hg lowers ur compression to run more boost safley.
Then another 1k+ for turbo kit install...
Ive spoke w/ the guy that installed this kit... Audspeed has AWFUL cust service/shipping MONTHS somethimes of waiting. Kit is also not the best of quality but thats not your problem.
Plan 3k for kit, then 1k for tuning. 1k for hg install + stud kit. and 1.5k for turbo install/injectors/exhaust/etc.
6.5k already.
Since the kit does not come with tuning.
And if i ever want a bigger turbo can i just buy the flange to maybe fit a t3/t4 turbo?
The exhaust mani is flanged for a t3/t4 turbo.... you dont buy differnt flanges for differnt turbo's.
You could run a gt30/similar R turbo w/ that flange and that would be considered an upgrade/bigger turbo.
Buy a TT kit were you will get QUALITY, CUST SERVICE, and proper tuning. Yielding way more power then this kit would ever dream of.
