My 335i needs new TURBOS!!!

marcos335i · 02-23-2012, 08:59 PM

Hello everyone,
I just found out that the turbos on my car (335i/e90) needs replacement. I am looking for a good turbo/upgrade that would give me more power but at the same time not cause any damage to the engine. Please help!!!!

Depends on how much you want to spend/how much power you want/how much downtime you can afford.

akotten · 02-23-2012, 09:25 PM

How many miles are on your car?

Syndicategt · 02-23-2012, 09:34 PM

Want to buy my RB's? I'm about to sell this POS car as I've just about had it. Just curious, since you want more power, are you even tuned? Because adding upgraded turbos will not give you power alone., you'll still only be boosting to 8 psi, but only getting there faster. You can always buy new stock ones from Tischer or UnitedBMW for about $300 each. RB's go for about $3,000 ~ new (not including parts/labor).

If you need new turbo's I would contact HPF of Vishnu and try to get a single setup. 650whp all day

Less than 5,000 miles, I need to figure out the future of my car before I go selling them off.

My stockers went out at 55K. Are you smoking out your exhaust or are they making the dreaded siren?

Could u be more specific(RB/tischer/unitedBMW)? Im not familiar with parts. My car started with the smoke and now the noise. Besides RB's any other turbos?The car is not tuned. Im planing to tune it... any idea on pricing?

Beemw335 · 02-23-2012, 11:09 PM

Just go with oem turbos.

Blubaron79 · 02-23-2012, 11:16 PM

What were the symptoms of your turbos going out? Seems a little early.

+1. Especially since you haven't gone beyond the stock tune. There is plenty of potential in the OEM setup with the proper supporting parts.

You mean $575 each.

Beemw335 · 02-24-2012, 09:41 AM

Your stock, first try out tune dps dci, im sure youll be happy with that.
You can find slightly used for 600 for both

JamesM3M5 · 02-24-2012, 01:14 PM

I'd figure out which of the two is bad. It is unlikely that both are shot. If you want to spend the time and money now to do both, figure $1400 in parts - turbos, gaskets, new copper nuts, coolant, oil, etc. Or you can just replace the bad one. You can order everything from getbmwparts.com for 20% of BMW list price.

RB turbos.
