There should be a group buy, 25 people $5000 a piece.....$125,000...that should recoupe the upfront cost and then some, then they can sell the rest for $10,000 if they want.

Sadly I have to agree.
I was so looking forward to charging my 545 but the cost is just way too much for a car that is now 6 years old.
Yes I know they would completely different to drive, but for that price plus the value of my car, I could get the big ///M.
And the ///M is always goin to be the better car overall.

We have yet to announce final retail pricing on our kits other than early projected pricing but I can tell you that it will be as follows.
TVS1 $6,995
TVS2 $7,995
The N62 is a highly complex motor to add forced induction to and this is why many vendors have failed to bring a product to market. I have spent a great deal of time driving the 545 and 550 with both TVS1 and TVS2 kits and can tell you that it is a truly fantastic combination when done correctly. The blower is almost silent in operation while providing instant power at any given RPM along with OEM driveability. The TVS blower is one of the most efficient blowers we have ever used.
We have begun installing these kits in-house and will release a DIY / dealer version soon. I will also post the 545 TVS2 dyno soon.

Why did you guys charge me $8,995 for the TVS2 for the 545i then? Also, where does the oil separator go when using this kit on the 545i? It can not be put in the original place... please advise.

We did not sell you your kit your local shop purchased the kit direct from us and sold it to you. You would need to discuss your pricing with them. Have your mechanic contact us direct if he needs help with the oil separator.
