Videos of my E61 and Hexon RR550s in action

Since there are a lot of people on this forum interested in the Hexon RR550s I thought it might be helpful if I shared some videos of the turbos in action.

Personally I am very happy with the response-power balance. Yes near instant turbo response like the 488GTB would be ideal but all things considered, this is a hard to beat setup for those who want to build a daily driven weapon like I did. The modest price of the turbos makes it even sweeter, hopefully durability and longevity don't ruin things down the road.

My 535xi E61 weighs 4,600lbs when I am driving which is heavy but the performance still impresses people, you lighter 1 and 3 series guys can expect a greater kick in the pants.

Hope this is helpful,

Evan,

Just noticed your rocking the paddle shifters. Is that a mod you performed, or did you buy it like that? I was laboring under the belief that the xi model wasn't offered with the paddles.
