Unfortunately, it will be more than a $12,000 or $16,000 upgrade. As he said, they won't push on their stock vehicle. Add clutch or transmission upgrades maybe new axles, I would guess you are over $20,000 once the vehicle is upgraded to handle the power.
Will the Weistec turbos fit on a 2015 X5M? |

We have not yet looked at an X5M to see if it is possible. We have heard of some people installing the cross bank manifolds on the X5M and X6M. If that is something that can be done with out issue, then it is likely quite possible that the W.4 turbos will work when coupled with the cross bank manifolds. It is possible to over power the stock clutches using stock turbos. To take full advantage of any turbo upgrade for these vehicles, either the midrange torque will have to be limited, or supporting upgrades must be installed. Quote:
The rest are designed and manufactured by Weistec and no one else. If it were possible to use complete off the shelf turbochargers, costs would be lower. To get turbos that bolt on and fit like OEM, custom designed turbine housings and compressor covers are needed. |

Just FYI, this was a general question regarding aftermarket companies products and prices. |

Would be nice to see this - wonder how the DME handles the boost profile as you need external PID control else the boost will be continuously hunting...

Older X*M - http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/show...diagId=11_4389 Newer X*M - http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/show...diagId=11_5948 Point being, other than maybe some slight variations, there shouldn't be any reason the newer X*M couldn't use these turbos since it's truly the same TU engine as the M*.

I realize this doesn't directly relate to how these turbos could work on the motor, but there are differences that many people do not know about until they tear the engine down. |

This is insane, $11k for two turbos. I thought pure turbos were expensive. With a market shifting to F90, I don’t see a lot of people spending that kind of money on turbos that don’t have proven numbers. Unless, F90 share same turbos as F10, than maybe some will buy it. I also don’t understand why people spent 10k on wheels.
