As promised, it is finally here! The first VTT offering for the amazing BMW B58 engine. We have worked long, and hard on the design of these turbochargers, and are very happy with them, to say the least! We did not want to release the units for pre-order until we at least had completed 93 only results with a custom tune.
We accomplished that but ran out of time due to the Thanksgiving Holiday. I was not going to ask Cary to spend any more time on the eve of Thanksgiving, and I too needed to get home to my family. What you see here is a 93 tune that is about 90% done. The turbo spools so quickly Cary was having an issue with a boost spike then a little dip as the DME tried to catch it. After that it's nice and smooth, and holds power to redline. He will easily be able to tune out the dip once we have a more time. We also believe there is more room up top to see 530-540WHP on 93.
With that said we are very happy with the results: 519WHP/520WTQ on 93 Octane only, custom Cary Jordan tune, VRSF Downpipe, Dinan inlet lid, M-performance exhaust, and a Supra HPFP are the mods.

The last mod (the Supra HPFP) was installed after the stock pump could just not keep up even on pump gas at 450WHP range. This pump is a drop-in, meaning no changes, simply exchange a harness extension. It took us about 20 minutes including the harness mod to get it installed. No tuning changes were needed.
It truly is plug and play. We plan to push this turbo and pump on E85 as early as next week to get final results! Now to the good stuff, pricing, and product details. So after hinting at pricing for quite a while... take a look!

We are happy to finally announce intro pricing of $1599 on the unit. Coupled with our upcoming Black Friday Discount the turbo can be pre-ordered for only $1279.20! We expect to have 100 units in stock by the middle to end of Feb. Your Pre-order can be canceled at any time up until the turbo is ready to ship for a no questions asked refund, but we wanted to make sure to give people the chance to get in on Black Friday pricing!

Ready to take your B58 to the next level? Don't want to deal with core charges, long lead times, or restrictive factory housings? Look no further! VTT has you covered with our 100% new casting B58 “GC” turbocharger upgrade. We start with keeping the great design elements of the factory B58 turbo and removing the not-so-great ones such as the small factory inlet area, bearing housing oil structure, thrust bearing, and anything else we saw that could be improved upon. With the basics covered, we stepped it up a level adding in proprietary VTT changes and finished off by having all these parts cast to OE quality. What this means for you is serious B58 power made easy; GC's are a drop in B58 turbocharger upgrade that supports over 600WHP while maintaining factory spool and all factory connections including oil, water, downpipe, and charge pipe.
Key Design Elements:
• All new castings with factory restrictions removed. No oversized wheels stuffed into factory housings here!
• Full 3″ turbocharger inlet size with an included 3-4″ silicone inlet elbow that removes ALL factory inlet restrictions
• 9 blade Mar-M 246 turbine wheel with the latest aero technology for increased flow while maximizing spool
• 9 blade “point-milled” compressor wheels with the latest aero technology to maximize flow while virtually eliminating surge
• Direct connection to ALL factory lines including oil, water, downpipe, and factory charge pipe
• Redesigned, and improved internal components including bearing housing oiling, and an upgraded thrust bearing
• NO CORE CHARGES. The new unit is sold to you outright. Keep your old unit in case you ever want to go back to stock. Or sell it to recoup your investment -it's up to you!
• No long lead times; once fully released production units will be on the shelf for same to next day shipping (please inquire about stock levels when ordering)
• Full 12-month unlimited mileage/No Hassle Warranty. If you have an issue, we will replace the unit no questions asked
Turbocharger Purchase includes:
• 1 - VTT B58 "GC" turbocharger
• 1 - VTT B58 "GC" 3"-4" Silicone inlet elbow with adapters for factory connections
• 1 - 3" hose clamp for silicone inlet elbow
• 1 - optional 4" connector for inlet elbow for use with stock airbox
Please note: This unit does not fit the 2020 A90 Toyota Supra, we are working hard on the Supra unit, and should have one available soon
As with any turbocharger upgrade it should be coupled with complimenting upgrades such as fuel system upgrades, intake, downpipe, intercooler, tune, etc. While you will see gains going from stock turbo to a GC with no other changes, to realize the full potential of the upgrade other parts/tune must be added.
Be sure to grab a B58 install kit to ensure a quick, and trouble-free install!

This is what it came in making. This was on a MissionPerformance Stage 2 93 OCt tune. We never got to test the car stock, as we did not have access to the stock tune, but it is pretty well documented a stock turbo car on a stock tune makes about 330WHP/340WTQ
