VTT is happy to introduce the first and only available plug and play crankcase breather kits for ALL BMW applications that use the two-prong oil tab style oil fill caps. With this breather simply remove your oil cap, install the breather, and instantly free up horsepower, improve turbo draining, remove crankcase pressure, all while adding a cool look to your engine bay.
Can be used by itself with the stock PCV system to eliminate crankcase pressure, or with any number of PCV setups for the ultimate in crankcase pressure relieve
Made from 6061-T6 Aircraft aluminum anodized black for a long-lasting finish, 4 stainless steel baffles for complete oil control, a PTFE one way check ball, a high-quality filter, and clamp all work together to keep crankcase pressure where it belongs, out of your crankcase.
This breather will fit:
ALL BMW's with the two-prong style oil fill cap including but not limited to N54, N55, S55, S54
NOTE: NOT ALL THE MODELS LISTED HAVE THE SAME HOOD CLEARANCE, WE CANNOT SAY WHICH MODELS WILL HAVE CLEARANCE ISSUES, AND WHICH WILL NOT AS WE HAVE NOT TEST IT ON ALL MODELS. IF YOU ARE ORDERING THE BREATHER FOR ANYTHING OTHER THAN AN N54 TEST CLOSE YOUR HOOD CAREFULLY TO ENSURE CLEARANCE IF IT DOES NOT FIT LET US KNOW, AND WE WILL GET YOU A REFUND ONCE THE BREATHER IS RETURNED.
MODEL LIST OF REPORTED CLEARANCE ISSUES: N55 E/F 3 SERIES
Vargas is among the first turbo specialists to release a Stage 1 upgrade for the S63TU V8. Using the stock housings but with improved internals, this S63 turbo upgrade is good up to 800whp. Stage 1 is a hybrid of stock and upgraded internals - a new larger higher-flow billet compressor wheel with specially machined housings for much improved flow characteristics. These are the first step in building an X5/X6 M super sled!
Vargas Turbo Technologies has been in business since 1979, offering rebuilt and re-engineered turbo solutions. Vargas rebuilds each turbo assembly with OEM or better internals, addressing known weak points at the same time. Because the Stage 1 uses stock turbo housings, all of the stock turbo plumbing and intake hoses will match up. It's recommended that the rest of the system be upgraded to handle your tuning goals. Custom software tuning will be required to achieve the correct fuel and timing curves.
Oil Recommendation - modern engine oil is formulated for emissions and to be environmentally friendly. The additives in current oil lowers the oil's ability to withstand high temperatures and stresses, lowering its shear strength and its lubricating properties. Vargas recommends oils with high ZDDP (zinc and phosphorus) content that will better protect and cool the turbo bearings. Examples of high-zinc oils are Red Line Race, Red Line Euro, Motul 300V Racing, Joe Gibbs Racing, Valvoline VR-1 oil, and most Diesel-spec oils that you can buy off-the-shelf. Some oils, especially the Race type, will need more frequent oil changes and may be harmful to catalytic converters.
WHP rating: 800. This rating is used to compare various stage of Vargas turbo kits. The number is a theoretical limit for how much power it could make. There is no advertised horsepower gain without consideration for additional tuning and upgrades. The rating is provided as a reference to use in your tuning planning.
Vargas turbos are rebuilt on an exchange basis so a core charge will apply. This will be refunded upon the return of your rebuildable original turbos.
