If you’re looking for sound, reach out to @t51r_mods on IG to grab a compressor housing from him. I believe he has a couple cores on hand right now to make life easier. Even with the stock airbox, it will be noticeably louder than if you just had an intake with a completely stock turbo.
I’ve got some more logs to add to the shared info. I recorded two logs (Cold start and cruising/mixed driving) for both charge pipes (BMS and CTS).
BMS (Cold Start):

BMS (Driving)...
The charge pipe is significantly closer to the inlet pipe than my previous one, and does not allow you to connect the vent hose to the inlet. As previously stated, I’ve tried my stock inlet, my CTS inlet, and my Dinan inlet, all of which I am left with insufficient room, as the charge pipe is...
Of course! I plan on grabbing some more to paint the best picture I can of how the car is performing, then go back to my CTS charge pipe and grab some logs of that as well.
There’s no loss of power, per se, but the valve cracking open down low really bothers me and it may just be placebo, but I...
Just posted a log. Feel free to check it out and let me know if you see anything of concern.
No mechanical issues or issues with the install. The BOV itself functions as it should, but it just opens up at part throttle and low boost levels. It’s either an issue with running a BOV on these cars...
Speaking of data, I grabbed a log of some cruising with a couple pulls thrown in there. I’m not sure if this will help, or if I may need to log additional channels, but feel free to take a look.

If anybody would like me...
Anybody else notice that the BOV tends to crack open below 5-ish PSI? It’s most noticeable when cruising at part throttle. It’s made my turbo noticeably less responsive on the low end, and it feels like the car is fighting itself to overcome the lost boost pressure, but once it gets over 5 PSI...
Dumb question: how different are the grommet locations on the intake boxes between the Supra and M340i? I’d love to pick one of these up, but I’m assuming the heat shield would be useless for me.
Looking to buy a stock turbo compressor housing. Doesn’t matter if it’s from a 2 or 6 port car. If you or anyone you know may have a blown stock turbo or may be willing to part ways with their compressor housing for whatever reason, please let me know.
