Has anyone Successfully Turbocharged their Non-Turbo E90 328i/Xi

Bigrich45 · 07-04-2019, 12:50 AM

I know there isn't a legit turbo kit out for this car but I know there is a couple on eBay claiming that they will fit a E90 328. Does anyone on hear have a turbocharged e90 328? BTW not at all saying I'm looking into doing this, just asking out of curiosity

Go to the N52 motor subforum and do a search for turbo
or supercharger there are some people there that have considered
this. Generally regarded as impractical.

@togs_n52 on Instagram has done it. Not sure if he's on the forums or not

AFAIK The supercharger kits even had issues in terms of support for the customer. IE, they did not work properly.

You are better off swapping in a n54/n55 to be honest.
