My JPWorkz 335xi build

[tommyhondros]

Previously I was FBO/inlets outlets. Someone local had the JP kit on for 3k miles and totaled his car so I contacted him and we came to an agreement on the price for the full kit. For 4 days I went back and forth to the collision center where I uninstalled the kit. I have ordered all parts needed and will give prices and updates as I install the kit.

JP Full Kit PTE 6266 & Synapse CP/BOV (Sold for $300) - $1200
PR Coils $492
VRSF 7.5 - $684
NGK plugs $66
Misc ST items - Blockoff Plug - $37 $10 heat tape - turboguard - $60
Turbosmart EBoost 40psi controller - 272 ebay
Oil Pan Gasket & Bolts - $55.54 - ebay
Belts - $143

For a total of ~ 3k
Sold all of my bolt ons for twins to a local guy for $1200 for a total of $1800 spent.

I will be doing all the work myself in my garage on stands and the install should be finished by August 7th.

Why did you buy a turbosmart eboost boost controller. Should have just gotten MHD and/or jb4.

Aj Hoti at EMP tuning is my tuner and instead of JB4/Boostbox he uses the Turbosmart and he just broke the record at 890whp

I wonder if that was their taper issue.

Had to do with their wastegate springs. Lots having issues with the boost box the turbosmart is run in a few N54s and they've had nothing but good things to say. Hot parts are being ceramic coated right now get them back Wednesday

the PSI springs they were using can handle the boost they were trying to achieve, but anyways, good luck with your build. You'll love the ST.

Bought it second hand but he received his kit in a month and had it for a month before totaling his car and moving platforms hence why I got it for such a good price!

ceramic coated

Looks good. What was the cost for ceramic on the two? I was quoted $225-$250 for the manifold and $20/ft for the DP and dumps.

Also, anyone have any opinions on the direction of flow for the front wastegate? Could it be a potential cause for boost creep?

I paid $140 for manifold and downpipe with 2000 degree rated coating was done in 3 days gonna wrap dump tubes in reflective tape they don't really get hot so didn't see a point getting it coated
