Adding a turbo

Is it possible to add a turbo onto my bmw 3 series 2011 m sport?

Hi there, yes it is possible but it's not practical due to the cost and complexity. The engine is quite highly tuned so even a low pressure turbo/supercharger will need you to lower the compression ratio, increase the fuelling and remap.

Have you done a remap and fast road cams? They are about the best mods on that engine in my experience.

I haven’t I was looking at remaps but it’s only a 6% increase which is why I looked towards a turbo

It's annoying that BMW have done a pretty good tune and setup on this from the factory, it doesn't give you much to work with.

Maybe trade it in for an M5
