VI Engineered Top Mount Single Turbo Kit
- Thread starter doublespaces
- Start date
Thanks! We are 12 kits sold as of now and working feverishly to get them out the door. Four are out there now and three more going out by this Friday. With a few vendors either falling off or leaving the market I feel like our kit is a great option. Aj has seen how they performed and was pleased with them. We will continue to further develop and make some real power in the near future.
This is not your thread. Yes, it is your product, but you didn't start it.
Tony held the half mile record with twins up until Omar just took it. We'll see what both parties and others do next year.
Hahaha, this is why I love the fact that anyone can claim some world record with x, y, and z qualifications and just march around puffing their chest(s) out like....well....like they currently are.
Tony still has the fastest 335...and Omar isn't even close. Tony is like 6mph faster or something insane. And even Terry (or Payam) is in the 17Xmph range ahead of omar. Oh, but Tony/Terry/Payam cheated and used a 6sp (or something). Or maybe it's the inverse and Omar does it like a real man with an auto?
Oh, but I have the fastest 335i in the 1/2mi on 50mph rated doughnut spare tires. I pushed those bitches to 100mph and that makes me the ultimate risk taker.
I was very specific to say it was the auto record. Omar is going to be running one of our kits soon. It’ll be interesting to see what it does. Our manifolds are designed to have a larger power band as well as holding high power to rev limit.
FWIW I set the stock auto record in 2014, running less than 1/2 mile.
I know these guys will pass it up soon though as auto builds improve.http://www.n54tech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=27480

I’ll have to tell Omar! What turbo(s)?
Get used to it, if it's anything that isn't VTT or supported by\from VTT it isn't good.
Can we keep this thread on topic? Jesus Christ. Quality looks good.
Mine is within 1mm of the wastegate, I wrapped it in gold tape and it's held up 14k miles.
No, this isn't true at all. Plenty of respect on this board for Doc Race, for Fab Factory, for ACF, for BMS, for AD Engineering, for RB Turbos, for Fuel-It, for MMP....should I keep going? Many of these vendors have running beefs with VTT (which is easy to accomplish cause Tony is generally not very likable).
My statement of "oh lord" is and was this:
Another new to the market vendor comes in with no results, no facts/figures, no proof of superiority. He looks around the room and with vulgarity says how he is better than VTT, RB, MMP, et.al who have already proven themselves.
I'm all down for a great new product, I am. I'm eagerly awaiting CES/Steed Speed's results to compare against Payam and ACF (along with Tony's GC's). But this millennial mindset of superiority without any proof has bitten this market segment (n54 aftermarket) time and time again. What I do know is that there are pictures of a development kit, and a lackluster dyno showing full spool at 3800rpm and peaking at 634hp. That's hardly putting "twins dicks in the dirt".
This may be the new hotness... It really might. But right now there is nothing to go on except the facts portrayed and someone running their mouth with nothing to back it up.
That's what "oh lord" means.
My comment wasn't to your oh lord, it was to Tony. Oh lord.
Those power levels were barely reaching efficiency of the turbo so be prepared to see big numbers. I might add, I have been in this market for years. You’ve probably just never heard of me. If your car is stock turbo and has a set of downpipes you’re welcome as I had a hand in development of the original AR Design products and was lead fabricator there for years.
Now when you say I have nothing to back it up, please take a second to go check out my instagram. There’s plenty of pics showing what we do. My personal ig is @Jonvigil82 and business is @viengineereed.

Nice!
Lots of top notch fab work on the @Jonvigil82 account but the @VIEngineereed account isn't working at all. Neither is @VIEngineered....
Did you work with a guy named Justin I think it was? He went off and formed "BB Fabrication". He made me a set of 3" downpipes and 3" midpipes (That ended up not fitting and needed fixed). But they were and as far as I know, still are the only set of downpipes that really didn't taper at all.
