:D thanx A.. nope,wrong guy.but i heard powerdyne is among the cheaper ones out there..only downside is the boost is rather limited.
:dunno: again.i guess pros and cons..depends on what u want huh....
Is it cheaper? Cant really compare because there are not many in Malaysia.

Adliz - how much is your ASA?
Casa - Yours?

The psi change be increase quite easily. Just change the pulley with differ diameter but then can the car engine take it? Standard powerdyne boost is between 6psi to 9psi. Cukuplah tu.... :D

how about ESS? i've seen one in esstuning.com which cost about RM22K. but who can install and make sure it works & last?
 
it's now a good time to get a kit from aa, rennsport or ess as our ringgit is pegged to dollar.. the infinitas (eur) price is getting higher by the day.. i believe some s'poreans are bringging in kits from rennsport and infinitas.. can pass u their details if u want..

kawei ('cute' in japanese?) - where did u get quoted for RM22k? does that including shipping?

arms - i was lucky to get a recond blower unit (demo unit) with 1 yr warranty. the rest of the kit are new. i used the savings to upgrade my tyres, brakes, gauges and coolers.. now i want samller pulley, 330 injectors, exhaust, headers, stroker kit, cam, bla.. bla.. bla..

boost is addictive!! and to do it safely on a udm, well.. u can guess.. sigh... :(

with ringgit under valued, its not a good time to import

where did u get quoted for RM22k? does that including shipping?

Price: USD 6235/EUR 5175 as per stated in ESStuning.com, no idea about shipping but i guess it won't cost more than RM 2000.
 
Kawei,
Is ESS = Powerdyne?

Installing it will be a porblem. Not many people are into SC. I think Jeffery or bmwky mentioned that Turbo Sang in Sri damansara have installed SC for beemers before. Another alternative will be Obermaier or perhaps Euromotorsport. Both in Jln Ipoh area. Maybe you can check with them directly. I am not sure.

Adliz
So how much did you pay for it? Did you get it from Obermaier?

BTW, anyone know how many SC bmw out there? 10, 20 or more
 
Q: What does the different ESS supercharger system designation mean ?
A:
PD1: Powerdyne based stage 1 system, non intercooled.
VT1: Vortech based stage 1 system, non intercooled.
VT2: Vortech based stage 2 system, intercooled with higher boost pressure.
VT3: Vortech based stage 3 system, intercooled with upgraded engine internals, even more boost pressure.
TX1: ASA TM1 based stage 1 system, non intercooled.
TX2: ASA TM1 based stage 2 system, intercooled with higher boost pressure.
TX3: ASA TM1 based stage 3 system, intercooled with upgraded engine internals, even more boost pressure.
TL1: ASA TM3 based stage 1 system, non intercooled

I guess they are different. ESS do buy from Powerdyne, Vortech & ASA.
 
:D wow!!! i'm confused already..so many!!!
adliz,gotta meet u one of these days la..dunno which one to go for.
 
kawei,

Thank you! Thank you. You finally clear the air about ESS. Now I understand why ESS got Powerdynelah.

Cheers

whats the power output for that kit?
 
he claims around 30% increase at crank.. but no i/c, no ecu, no injectors, no frp, just blower, pulleys n belt.. boosting at 9psi somemore.. woah.. fly.. :)
 
hey adliz sorry can't meet u that day..in kuching la,been here for the past 2 days.btw the powerdyne SC really reasonable price la..what do you think about it?
30% of 193hp wud be 57.9hp = 250bhp.
ok or not? its a really simple and basic system isn't it? no ecu,i/c,injectors etc..wud it be good?
there's a saying that a simple solution is the best most of the time..but does it work for SC kits as well??

no IC and no injectors but running 9psi of boost?

can tahan meh?

esp with our weather and all!
 
:D infinitas sk+ SC kit for 6cyl bimmers.. noticed this kit is also devoid of any injectors,ICs and the lot.
i think this is meant to be a starter/basic kit and comes with ASA TM111-12 compressor,intake assembly and ASAtronic piggyback etc..328i est 250-260chp.
anyone selling this kit in malaysia?
selling for a little less than us$4000
