E9X M3: SuperCharger Owners List ///

D1ESEL · 09-13-2017, 06:14 PM

Hey guys!

I wanted to check in to see feedback between going with the ESS VT625 and VT650. Both are so close in pricing so I am leaning towards the 650.

Any downside to going that route vs. the 625?

The only reason I can think of is installation if you maintain 6 rib or go to 7 rib. Adds an hour to the install. The alternator pulley adds a little to install if you don't have a lift. Some people can pull without a lift but mine required me to come from underneath. Honestly though, maybe 30 minutes. I can't think of a good reason not to go 650.

Depends on what you're looking for.

VT2-625 is your best all around setup if you want very good power on the stock motor IMO. The VT2-650 is very dependent on fuel quality as it maxes out the stock motor and fuel system. The 650 kit was designed for customers who want to squeeze every last HP out of the stock motor and are ok with pushing limits. It is also meant for customers who understand that you have to use the product as designed due to the added stress it puts on the motor.
