400hp N55
Hello,
I'm trying to push to 400HP on an N55 F10. I'm told that my stock turbo is able to handle that, however the question I have is whether or not it will be able to handle it reliably without going boom boom. I'm upgrading both my HPFP and LPFP, front intercooler, charge pipe, hatless downpipes, and getting a nice little tune to top it all off. I have an upgraded intake, but that's as far as my car has been messed with so far. Is there anything else I should watch out for when trying to push it to 400HP? Is it even a good idea to try and get this much power out of this engine? |

I have a JB4 (Map 5, auto-tune 12-17 PSI instead of Map 2 of 14.5 PSI), charge pipe, downpipe on our X1 35i (also N55, but 6 speed auto) and it "should be" close to 400 hp without all that extra stuff added. Also the 2nd X1 I've run this setup on for a combined 100k miles, no issues.
Do extra maintenance, realize some parts (plugs/coils/etc) don't last as long, call it a day.

For a reliable setup, I would highly recommend a turbo upgrade.
