Guys, I can't even keep up with the reporting going on here and I don't even give a shit about all of it, ya'll might as well be fighting over which power ranger is best. This thread is going to be moved to the Octagon where you guys can battle it out with each other.

Map 7 on jbr bro. What ever max psi it is. 18.5 psi or something. Turning it up to 22 as soon as figure out why my lpfp is dropping pressure at 6k rpms

If you looked at your logs you would know what your peak boost and wgdc are.

You can't say these are reliable. Just because you paid less, are happy with the power output and haven't broken down yet doesn't mean they're reliable.

If your in cooler region right now it's pretty common see smoke I had brand new stock turbos and now hydras they steam on some nights , you see everything without cats as long as when no wind it dissipates in few feet your usually ok
Noone wishes bad but shock is just pointing out should be careful cause dont want to influence people to buy something that you say is reliable without being sure cause we work hard for our money

Yea ofcourse but I know some other people that ran these turbos for 20k. Some less. Vehicular DIY is running them as well for some time now and the guy is very serious and big help to n54 community I dont think he will buy some garbage 900 dollar turbos. Am not saying nothing am just saying it worked for some people already that's it.

@ 50 seconds into the video ... what the heck is up with the front fender of the car? I can't tell if it has been mud bogging or just completely mangled.

Now that be one dirty girl lol
True but I know guy ran them for 20k miles at 24 psi or so without issues. But we will see how mine last. All depends how hard you beat on them as well. Btw since then or before that I heavent noticed smoke. Straight pipe will have some but not a lot. I'll make more videos soon. I'll be going to the track soon to test them out. Stag tuned
Nice to know. 20k at 24psi is good news. And pushing 600bhp makes for a fast E9x that can pretty much take on most cars out there. Keep posting as you get her dialed in.

I dont want to lie. It was 20k miles on these turbos but pre revised version. These ones is much better the revised version which I have. I dont want to lie but I know for sure it was over 21 or so psi he said. But even if it's at 21 psi exact that's still amazing. Btw on my YouTube there much more videos of installing turbos and motor and more cool stuff. I will be posting more and more. And I domt give up I will keep going to the track and do more and more tests. Am fully gutter btw and weight my car its 3160 pounds with OEM battery. With light weight it was 40 pounds less

Fixed the issue with lpfp problem. I didnt have enought gas in a tank to do a pull that night. I filled it in blended gas and all fixed the issue. So this is on map 6 at 22psi and e42 by Pure Evil Tuning. Just drove in "D" in Mexico and floored it at 70 mph first. Went a little sideways. I am on 275 drag radials. This is In California so its warm out here. So I was like no way ! and took out my phone and got 60 mph start. Here you go!

Looks quick. Try and get a 60-130mph time to guage how these turbos will perform.

Any virtual dyno, word of mouth "my boy makes X whp", crayon scribbles, blurry half cropped dyno sheets... etc. are INVALID.

If you want to be taken seriously, put the car on a real dyno and post a legible graph.

There are many, many cars on this forum that meet this standard of proof for hp claims. All these half ass builds with DAWs do not.

Dyno numbers vary far too much. 60-130mph is what gives any gear head a true comparison of what your car is about.

Here's 60 to 140 mph and sub 6 seconds 60 to 120 mph. Tools in the trunk. Not heavy but still This is for all the haters out there. Lol 22 psi tapering to 20 psi

Rofl, I ran more boost than that when I had the stock twins.

What are you trying to show here aside from poor math skills?

TS @ 60 = 1.73 second
TS @ 120 = 8.3 seconds
TS @ 130 = 9.9 seconds

This means 60-120 = 6.57 seconds and your 60-130 = 8.17 seconds...

... in a gutted out car ...

*rings bell* SHAME

Stupidest thing I ever read when you said you ran more then that on stock twins. I am on big turbo 17.5 T and still on same fuel upgrades almost which was stage 2 lpfp as I had before! so only e40. damn bro you are a true retard. READ FIRST then speak later. I myself also pushed more boost on stock twins to 23 psi on e60 but I'd never push a bigger turbos like that because it runs out of fuel. As soon as I get upgarded fuel pump and hpfp overdrive I will push more. For the rest of ratardness that your wrote I am done. I just took out 508 whp procharged 370z that walked hellcats recently so yes its fast as fk
