Today, 03:12 PMTerry@BMS commented on article Pictures of the state M5junky's E60 M5 was in when removed from ASR Engineering for failure to compete custom twin turbo setup in BMW Blog, Performance, Tuning, Motorsport, and Modification NewsI've seen some data on ASR turbos. They look to perform about like RB to me. The real issue with ASR isn't their N54 turbos its everything else with the business including the ownership. :)358 replies | 17604 view(s) -

Factor in the unkowns for strength and 5-6 psi is a realistic conservative fully backed package155 replies | 901 view(s)

I mean, ESS was the mainstream option until Gintani released their kit (late last year?) Tried Googling', not a single tech spec has been released on the 1740 -- No compressor maps of CFM. It seems everything people know is word of mouth at this time, like Sticky estimating 5.5psi155 replies | 901 view(s)

People are making the same mistake on M3Post, you cannot directly compare a Centri Blower & a Roots/Twin Screw. They're going to have completely different curves & offer completely different power bands. IF there was a larger Roots blower that could be adapted to the S65 & offer the same peak power as the V3, then it'd easily be the better option with instant boost & better low end TQ.155 replies | 901 view(s)

Since the immediate boost and torque and whatnot. Why are the gains so low? Conservative tuning? 500 whp is low for an S65 supercharger, no? I seriously am this big of a noob, sorry.155 replies | 901 view(s)

BUT if you go to the B8 RS4 or RS5 product pages, they're still listing the kit with the TVS 1320 (at least according to the pictures, it never explicitly says what s/c they're using in the product description). Apparently they were running the TVS 1320 at 5 psi for 91, 6 psi for 93 & 8 psi for 100+. ***Just found this thread from APR regarding the TVS 1740, hopefully there's some concrete numbers & data -- http://www.audizine.com/forum/showthread.php/527530-APR-Presents-the-World-Premiere-of-the-Eaton-TVS1740-Supercharger155 replies | 901 view(s)
