I read the description and thought the same thing lol. Details matter to me. Even if it is only the description of an item.

I dunno about this one…
IIRC, CTS had a lot of QA/QC issues in their VAG offerings.

So far it looks good with zero complaints, we'll have to review in 6 months to 1 year.

That's good to hear!
Given the price point, I gather it won't take too long for the feedback to come rolling in.

I agree; their turbos for the older BMW platform are top sellers. I'm sure it won't be different with this kit.

You can do a twin scroll it would need a manifold. I'd prefer a single twin scroll anyway bit I'd only want a low mount 700hp ish.

You need even nunber of cylinders for twin scroll to work. Try making 3 cyliners work with two channels in the diagram below. Two, four, six, eight! Who do we appreciate? |

Yeah, I don’t think he knows what he’s talking about. Maybe he was thinking twin scroll single and incorrectly expressed himself. The S58 might as well be an old school Supra in terms of what setups to run. That’s kinda why I like the new engines all of a sudden. Ironically, it’s a bit of a cross between the 2JZGTE and the RB26DETT because for xdrive cars it uses that same oil pan passthrough design for the front drive axle like the RB did. I feel nostalgic every time I stare at this new generation engine from BMW.
Anyway, back on topic… would love to see some dyno runs with these twins and see what they do. I feel like everyone is so hung up on singles now for roll racing it would be awesome to see more response setups for like time attack or normal street/road race track setups. |

Cylinders 6 and 2 Feeding one and Cylinder 4 feeding the other fir turbo 2. Now is this ideal? No would it work yes, there is only one exhaust wheel just two passages to the vanes. I wish BMW did a manifold with 1,5,3 and 6,2,4 for mono scrolls as that would be an even sounding exhaust.

No, just because you can come up with a solution in your head doesn't make it so.

your example above - Turbo one would have two pulses on one scroll cyl 1 fire and then Cyl 5... so far turbo 2 hasn't received anything 120° into rotation - being pushed against from the boost side to boot. and then the other scroll of turbo 1 gets one more pulse - we are now 180° crank rotation - and still have turbo 2 dead weight, then you are merely reversing this for the last 180° rotation. anyway... would this work? well... there are many ways to make boost, but this by far inferior. The entire reason for twin scroll is to deliver more power from less fuel than a single counterpart by providing consistent pulses throughout the crank rotation. your example there are huge gaps in the crank rotation would provide less power, more fuel and horrible response. (opposite desired effect). two twin scroll turbos needs 8 cyls. end of story. no manufacturer or performance shop uses severely handicapped setups like two twin scroll turbos run by 6 cylinders for a reason. |

I was never stating it was ideal, just that it was possible. I believe the ideal is a twin scroll single low mount.
