BPC Turbo Kit Auto Vs. Manual Poll

John@BPC · 01-18-2017, 12:17 PM

Hi!

We need some help gauging how many of you have manual cars vs automatic. Would you mind voting in the poll?

Thanks!

John

Manual 323I 2.5L N52, Canadian edition

Taskmaster · 01-18-2017, 12:28 PM

Is this for ALL of us, even people who aren't going Turbo?

InControl · 01-18-2017, 02:53 PM

2013 e92 auto. Would consider a manual conversion if thats an option at your shop.

+1. my guess is that they want to gauge the breakdown of auto vs manual for enthusiasts (asking this sort of question here gets them a sample of their most likely customers)

manual e92 328i

longtermproject · 01-18-2017, 08:08 PM

I just got new tires for the rear of my Automatic 325i, so I need more power to keep the tread to a minimum.

hassmaschine · 01-18-2017, 08:53 PM

I'm honestly shocked that 6mt (barely) outnumbers 6at.. Must be an enthusiast thing? Does owning 2 6mts count?

No hate on the 6at - god only knows you guys need more performance options...

6ixSpd · 01-18-2017, 09:59 PM

6MT FTW! Only way to enjoy the little 6pot banger like the N52

CobraMarty · 01-18-2017, 10:15 PM

How about a 335 manual conversion?

Pencil · 01-18-2017, 11:01 PM

I thought this was for the turbo kit focus. I suppose a sequential or dogbox qualifies too, so ok.

n55jb4 · 01-19-2017, 09:40 AM

328xi n51 a/t but now I'm selling my 328 and moving to 335. I wasn't very good at waiting game. I wish you guys came out with this years ago when ESS rolled out their SC - now that would have been a sale hit
Hopefully, you'll still get enough 328s left to make this kit R&D worthwhile, tho I fear less and less e90 are on the road and even less will spend $9K for aftermarket turbo kit, especially if for that price you can already buy a OEM BMW 335 today

You sound just like them.

? lol are you implying I'm a ESS shill lol? I could care less of ESS - they failed at SC. BPC is a lot better in terms of R&D, but I fear they already failed with this project by starting it too late. So I sound more like a chorus of dissapointed 328 owners who got tired of waiting games and are moving on to 335 as the only viable solution at this point
