Single turbo f30 n55

EuroJew · 04-16-2023, 10:24 AM

I have a 2013 n55 F30 6spd that I bought 2 years ago , it now has 90k miles on it and it will go up as its my daily . Estoril Blue on Coral red was very iconic to me as the "superman" spec and I was searching for my F30 for over 4/5 months to pick out the right example .
Question for you guys .......
E9X (N54) VS F3X (N55)
I am looking to get some big power out of the n55 platform but I'm at a crossroads if I should just ditch the n55 and build an n54 due to the availability of big single turbo kits .
If anyone has some insight on a big single turbo kit for the n55 please let me know ! I know DocRace had something in the works for the n55 but they just ghosted the idea of it .
The goal for this build would be to aim for right around 700/800hp and get a different daily .
EDIT:
Forgot to mention that I was also looking at getting the Ghassan G1000 Kit..... Is anyone running it? heard some pretty bad reviews against the shop and owners about the quality... pretty skeptical about this but i thought id throw it out there to see how others experiences went with them

EP3 In St Charles IL is local to me so I will be reaching out to them with my power goals to see if they have any insight
Any and all help would be appreciated in sourcing parts/kits !

Thanks

Everything you are asking has already been discussed at length in various threads in the N55 section: https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/fo...play.php?f=421

You also dont want to go to 700-800 HP on a stock engine.

Spool performance is coming out with a top mount kit for the n55 in about month.
