I wish i could, chances off that are pretty slim though tbh. I actually remember reading the forum of the car almost being sold. I was pretty chuffed when i came back a month or so later and saw it wasnt haha.

You’d need to do a complete strip down and concours rebuild to get anywhere near it Lewis....the detail in it is incredible.

Anyhoo....best of luck in your charging quest, I’m sure it’ll be a cracking install if you go ahead....though tbh a charged M sounds like a suicide machine, damn things are unruly enough as is...! :wink:

Wonder what mstyle would offer in terms of group buy for ess. I know they told me they could do the 455 ess kit and add a cooler on for a bit extra for a safe 500-550 hp.

Think they quoted me 7-8k for that a few months ago.

Might be worth checking group buy

So which company did you contact exactly?
About 1,5 years ago G-power split into 2 companies.
There is now Gpower GMBH:
https://www.g-power.com/en/imprint

And there is GP Infinitas:
https://gp-infinitas.com/en/imprint/

Infinitas used to be the brand division that made the acutal superchargers.
GP Infinitas still has S54 supercharger kits listed on their website; G-power doesn't.

But I have no experience with both companies.
Z4 3.0i | ESS TS2+ | Quaife ATB LSD | Brembo/BMW performance BBK front/rear | Schrick FI cams | Schmiedmann headers+cats | fully polybushed | Vibra-technics engine mounts | H&R anti rollbars | KW V3 coilovers | Sachs Race Engineering clutch

Was G Power direct. Was ready to buy the kit after doing some research so was a little deflated about it. Decided down the Karbonius CSL airbox, Schrick cams and Supersprint manifold route instead. Build thread to follow :thumbsup:
