535i single turbo

[Pata1]

Well since I'm having to replace my motor after a failure. I've been thinking I might as well do a single turbo setup. I know its gonna be a bit of a pain but I figure while the motor is out why not. Horsepower goal are in the 6s on a stock block. Just want to get some input from anyone who has done it so far.

Just do an LT4 swap instead and call it a day.

There is a user sch4400 on the boost forums (not sure I can link to other sites here?) who just posted the only ST E60 I've ever heard of or seen. He is in south korea, says the work was custom and the headers arent that great. Made 600whp with it ... back in 2014 apparently lol.

I'm pretty sure there is another e60 with a single turbo... I'll have to dig it up

I saw one running an On3 kit at the Dallas No Fly Zone event. It looked fairly cobbled together, but it fit and ran.

Nope. I wish though.

Nope. I wish though.

Had me googling for a while. Pipe dreams. Would love a LT4 or LS kit that allowed us to retain all other functionality.
