Meth will be a cheaper option and get you by as a fuel system buffer if you only plan on 700whp or so. Port injection is more expensive but will support anything 700whp and beyond. Meth helps as a safety net with additional octane as well as cooling iats (spray in j-pipe) to keep the car happy in hot weather. |

Cool links in your other post man! Didn’t know anyone had a drop in, in tank boost activated secondary pump solution. E85 is what he was referring to. You could go 30% further power wise on gasoline, but will be limited by octane at that point, not fuel volume. |

Nah, I'm good. It's not 2016 anymore. The only thread I've seen with messed up Vargas Turbos is from 2016. None since. I highly doubt that the threads are taken down regarding messed up Vargas turbos.

Please don't confuse N55 with S55 failures, as the units are not 1:1. Also, please don't combine the one or two N55/S55 crank snout reported issues with the VTT V1 spline lock CH kit. People are strictly talking about GC turbos, nothing else. Albeit on a Pure turbos thread... Closed minded haters are clearly going to spread hate. That's expected. However, there's a Vendors Feedback section just for that very reason. Feel free to spread the hate and false information in that section for as much as you please, just please don't dilute this informational section with BS. Bottom line: know your BMW tuning vendor history and try not to be a sheep to hearsay. Some of you guys continue to single out VTT for appropriately requesting to delete negative feedback due to it being in the wrong platform (S55 vs N55). But if some of you actually open your eyes for a second, you'll realize that VTT isn't the only vendor enforcing this act on Bimmerpost. |

Oh oh... a VTT fan boy... It's not just about the VTT hardware but also how the company handles topics in case of a warranty issue. Plenty of reviews online, just read. I never owned any VTT hardware but was considering dropping off my car because they are close by. Bottom line, I'm not trashing anybody but would choose pure over VTT anytime.

Im sure you're a valuable contributor on BP, at least in your head. Would love for you to explain how a person with PS2 high flows (installed) would be considered a VTT fan boy. The only thing I'm a fan of is keeping haters at bay, but do keep spreading that hate, so I'll have something to keep me occupied. Last edited by Spun Pornhub; 01-27-2020 at 05:09 PM.. |

I have heard of N54 failures which happened years ago. Have not heard of any except one S55 failure and that thread the guy posted about his failed VTT turbos is still on here to this date. And the post was from 3 years ago.

I made right around 650 rwhp on 93 alone no meth with Kratos. A puerile product in my opinion. And i had pure stage 2's before this current setup. Sky's the limit after that

We have tons of S55 GC's out in the field doing some serious work, including two cars in the 9's on stock motors. We've experienced GREAT reliability, so if you have S55 GC's, definitely drive them hard. Shoot me an email if you're interested in the best value turbochargers on the market and I'll be happy to work with you.
