Has anyone here heard about the Horsepower Freaks project with the 335i? Fill me in if you know more about it. Thanks

Chris,

Thank you for you email. The roomer is true, we do have a 335 in our workshop at the moment working on new parts for that and soon to get another one here for the turbo kit transformation. You will start seeing stuff such as intercoolers built to HPF specs with our tuning no it along with exhaust system in the coming month or so. Shortly after the bolt on stuffs have been engineered tested and power levels have been released we will move forward on doing the turbo kit single turbo install and do friendly stages such as the one used in our E46 M3. I will keep you information on file to update you as we move forward on our 335 project. Feel free to put my email on 6speedonline for those to contact me to be on this waiting list and to get updates as well. Thank you

I'm going to be stopping by the shop this weekend to take a look and possibly get some pics. I'll report back once I talk to Chris and the guys there. Should be pretty interesting.

Yea, I don't get doing just one turbo. It will be more work to pull the old manifolds off the engine and manufacturer new ones just for doing a single turbo setup. I wonder why they are going this route?

Think Supra... 2 turbos makes nice power, 1 big turbo makes insane power!

Yeah true, but also insane turbo lag.

I'm not sure that single-turbo inherently produces more lag. You have the same amount of exhaust gases to spool 1 or 2 turbos. The major difference as I see it is packaging - if similar length pipes to feed 1 or 2 snails, the spool characteristics should be very similar, assuming the single snail flows 2X each twin snail, and each turbo is equally efficient.

I wish HPF did a kit for the last gen M-roadster and coupe... different ECU...
