I have three catless cars. It's no issue inside the home, and no issue in an open garage unless I'm idling for quite a while.

+1 more for catless and larger intakes. Once you step past the flow and power of the stock turbo, restrictions can start to have a serious impact on performance. The intakes sized for stock turbo will choke out a bigger turbo on intake charge volume, and catted pipes are likely to choke out the...

Since they're both just stainless dump tubes, no real difference. Wait to see if you can get a deal, and another plug for MAD Catless DP which is an underrated affordable option.

You could try a 5W30 like Quaker State Full Synthetic and see if this goes away. There are reports of other oils resolving this code for other BMW VANOS models.

This code corresponds with 130716 - VANOS, exhaust: Control fault, camshaft jams. I believe this maps to the exhaust VANOS actuator. I'm not sure which one this is on B58TU. What oil are you using?

Likely not. The turbo mounts in the stock location for downpipe compatibility, but the inlet to the turbo is MUCH larger than stock and in a slightly different location (forward towards the bumper). Most intakes won't even fit on the 65mm turbo because they're too small. Even if you could fit...

I'm not claiming anything. Just running the numbers based on the provided info. I don't own one of these turbos, don't work for RP, and have no skin in the game except I'm ready to be a customer and I bought one of their kits for another car and am happy with it. Just pointing out that the A/R...

All of my statements are based on the 65 Omega kit being prepped for the Supra. I believe the 62 was just a test mule. Pure's limits are much lower. It doesn't even reach 700WHP with race gas fuel octane and meth injection. The Remnant kit can do over 800 on 93 octane alone if you have the...

The turbo can make >800WHP if you calculate the size and airflow on the compressor map. But the Supra itself is limited to ~600 WHP unless you make upgrades to the fuel system, e.g. LPFP upgrade, port injection, etc. What they're saying is: "This turbo can max out the stock fuel system...

Yeah, but then you gotta worry about bottles and solenoids.

That mid-range dip is a result of a too-small turbo with a congested A/R. That includes both stock and Pure. So this sounds like a good solution for you with stock downpipe compatibility & the appropriate flow across the RPM band.

I own one of their kits for another car (Genesis Coupe). They are everything they promise. Quality and fitment is top notch, customer service will blow your mind. My other car was the same situation as the Supra: crummy stuffed turbos for too much money, or $9K turbo kits that weren't very...

Squealing and squeaking is common of high performance pads. Try a pad bedding procedure to see if it gets better, or switch to EBC RedStuff / PowerStop Z23 and bed them right away.

Shop time is rated in hours for this kind of project, not parts. If Truth. Turbo kit installs are usually billed as a single job inclusive of whatever parts need to go on, or billed at shop time. If the shop is trying to bill you for each piece, you really need to go somewhere else.

After what labor? Both are direct bolt-on and require removal of the same components for installation. In terms of labor, it's the same job.

Even for "just Pure" builds, this is a way better option. Nicer turbo, more money in your pocket, etc. I'm also unsure that I want to go past stock trans.

Read this. Pure800 turbos are $2400 if you send in your turbo+manifold, $3900 if you don't. Top mount kits are, like, $7000. The company Remnant Performance is about to release a turbo kit for ~$2500 that includes all of this: A full charge pipe, compatible with port injection plates and meth...

Neither. Wait for this: Link if embed doesn't work.

I feel like the market isn't even ready to comprehend the ridiculous value that Remnant is about to unleash. All these dudes paying $7K for top mounts, or waiting on core exchanges from Pure, are gonna be pretty blown away by what's about to happen.
