Well, unless you know how to build a custom turbo kit and you've got a geek to write the software for you, you ain't gonna be turbo'ing your E46. There's a chance that someday ATP will release a turbo kit...

If you want boost, it's gonna be in the form of a supercharger. AA, ASA, ESS. Personally I'm going the ASA route.

Yep, they make a point. The 99 sedans are E46 Platform - you have no turbo options.
You can get an SC from ASA or AA... or ESS.

I was just about to say there's no turbo for the 328.

Hahaha, seriously though just get the ASA kit from Rennsport once they finish their kits (which will actually happen and soon, unlike the ATP)..

:lmao: I just called them yesterday, and that's exactly what they said... I e-mailed, too... here is their e-mail:


We're still have issues with castings for our key
coponanets, ie. turbine housing/manifolds and it could be
anther 4-6 weeks before we can test these.

We apologize for the long delay as we are just as excited
to get this into full swing production. It usually does
not take this long....
