*Important Information*
This mount kit will not work with the standard M57N turbo in its standard location.
Option 1 – Have the turbo housing clocked and top mount the turbo.This will also require trimming the rocker cover and a custom oil feed pipe.
Option 2 – Fit the M57N2 tubo, exhaust manifold, oil feed and intake. This will also require wiring and ECU modifications to run the electronic turbo, but it is widely accepted as an upgrade.We recommend avoiding the E90 variant as it will not clear the AC pump.
Both options will require custom turbo oil drains.
The kit is not suitable for 306d3 twin turbo models.
