Post VAC Motorsports | N54 on engine dyno



Stock, for now. ;-) KMS is one of our largest dealers in Europe and we are their official importer for North America and the Middle East. This N54 is going to end up in something very interesting...

A few pics from when I visited them 2 yrs ago.

Not yet, they are a bit more complicated as there are multiple sizes used.

Can you please post specifics about the stage 3 n54 head work? I'm genuinely interested, but need a lot more info than what's on your site...like cfm gains at various lifts, etc

No wonder my IAT gets so high with the stock intercooler. Those little turbos turn into flame throwers when pushed.

Why? All the info besides valve job angles and exact dimensions on the port work should be publicly available...especially when they boast about the how, what, and quality of the product. We don't let any other vendor slide on providing data.

Nope, no problems. Just pointing it out to the other guy. If you guys are not "officially" selling them yet, no worries. Looking forward to updates. Once intake manifolds with extra injectors hit this platform, I'm gonna be in need of a little head work.
