So who's all waiting for the RB turbo upgrade to become available?

WickedC5 · 03-27-2014, 11:24 PM

From what I've read, the F30 335 is pretty much tapped out at around ~380-400whp with the current performance upgrades available today. Just wondering if any of you guys will be going the RB turbo upgrade route when they become available in the near future?

Will go for it either RB or Pure.

Pure looks really cool not much more peak but extended peak power curve will definitely help acceleration

Came across the Vargas website and looks like they've got a stag 2 kit capable of ~550WHP. Options are good.

Pure Stage 1 for me.

Though, I'd like to see what Vargas/RB Turbos have to release, and have some actual customers purchase, rather than just shop-cars to look at some independent testing.

From what i've spoken to Pure about, their Stage 1, coupled with a custom tune, should yield +20~WHP across everything than they dyno right now.

I think it's well worth it for the price to be honest.

I'm curious about pump gas numbers on pure .. Did they say 20whp peak or close to red line ? I seen only one dyno were it was maxed out in e85 yield 10whp peak and 45whp at 6000rpm ..

They told me 20WHP "Peak", which I would imagine would yield 20WHP across the board, so potentially up to 65WHP by 6000RPM.

However, the Turbo Upgrade isn't built for peak power, as many know, it's just to sustain the power until redline, or sustain it as well as possible!
