The CTS Turbo Stage 2 Turbo Upgrade is a standard-size turbocharger kit for the BMW N54 engine. It is built for daily-driven power and torque rather than a top-end peak number. The turbos are brand-new, complete units, so no core is required.
Larger compressor and turbine wheels are good for 550-600 hp with supporting mods, with good low-end torque and boost response. Flow-optimized exhaust housings and high-efficiency compressor wheels mean less boost is needed to reach those power goals than with a stock-frame turbo.
This is a bolt-on upgrade for the BMW 335i, 335xi and 335is with the N54 engine (E90/E91/E92/E93). It will not fit right-hand-drive vehicles. The turbo inlets are 2" and need aftermarket 2" inlet piping, which is not included. Tuning for Stage 2 turbos is required, and an aftermarket charge pipe with a blow-off valve is strongly recommended.
