335xi owners with upgraded turbos... No go? Alot of problems?

mightbaal · 04-12-2016, 07:13 PM

I was wondering if there are any 335xi owners that have upgraded turbos and how well the transfer case and front differential is holding up? Also does andyone or can you disconnect the drive shaft to the front differential to avoid problems and making it the same drivetrain as the 335i? Kind of sceptical of my oem turbos going bad atm so I may just want to upgrade to some .Hexon rr600 Turbos....

Limit to 500wtq and you should be okay if you dont launch too hard.

im actually working on a brace and mount for the X-drive because I hate how much slop is in the system with just pulling of mildly from a light. Ordered a stock mount to take measurements off.

I think part of the X-drive issue is the weird angles its subjected to under torque. and that stock mount is like a wet noodle.
