Let?s play a little game called weakest link

So my friend and I are getting big boost turbo installed next week when it arrives. Both full bolt on with meth tank (x98). Probably won?t get there on the turbo without port but what do you guys think will go first as we get up there in power?

Transfer case? Trans? Let?s hear it!

clutch and then axles. maybe spark plugs too. and keep an eye on your water temps. it wouldn't be a bad time for an upgraded radiator.

Nothing will fail. BMW has built in enough of a stress margin that you will be just fine (fingers crossed).

My vote would go to the transfer case, but they don't usually fail because they can't handle power. They're just junk.
