There has been a bit of misinformation floating around that we wanted to clear up. The newer N55 turbo with the 4" outlet is a different turbo all together. The wheel sizes are different. You can't just swap over the bigger outlet (which is the whole turbofold). Also, the bigger outlet is not the reason the newer N55 makes a bit more power. It makes more power because of the DME tune, the larger turbine and compressor wheels, and all the other different supporting parts. We've had multiple people ask "can you add the 4" outlet to my turbo?". It doesn't work like that...

Hope that makes sense, Thanks.

Sweet thanks for that. Thought it was just the wider DP.

Nooooooo @ri. Just me generally ranting bro....Hehe.

@1SickG6, this applies ONLY to M135i owners.
Their engine code is different to ours.
Ours is N55B30MO
Theirs Is N55B30OO

no, bigger turbo for post July 2013 cars, so all cars that were built after July 2013 will have this
