eas | e92 M3 Project Update: [out with the old and in with the new]

New year, new look, new supercharger.



The ESS VT2-625 Supercharger replaces the previous VF620 system for 2013. With all the ESS systems we've been installing in the past 8 months, we also needed to have one of our own to put to the test.

With a heavy track schedule planned, we should be well aware of what the ESS kits are made of.

Installation




A couple of shots her show a prototype replacement intake runner was machined in-house and houses the boost pressure and secondary IAT sensor for datalogging/monitoring. Two versions will be released shortly, which will make it easier for thsoe looking for individual-based runner methanol injection or auxiliary sensor mounting.

Completed Shots




With less than 100mi clocked on the new kit, we're still getting used to the newfound power. And wiping that sh*t-eating grin off our faces every time the boost kicks in.

More to come.

Still needs some adaptation, but very impressive numbers for 91 octane.
