OVERVIEW

The Pure Stage 2 is Pure Turbos' OEM-based turbo upgrade for the 2.0L N20 / N26 four-cylinder in F-Series BMW 2, 3, 4 and 5 Series models, the E84 X1, F25 X3, F26 X4 and E89 Z4. Pure rebuilds the factory turbocharger with an upgraded billet compressor wheel, a high-flow turbine wheel and an upgraded center housing rotating assembly (CHRA), while keeping the OEM housing for a factory-like installation. Pure Turbos rates the upgrade as 400+ whp capable, with results depending on fuel and supporting modifications.

This is a core-exchange upgrade. Choose whether to send your factory turbo to Pure first, or pay a refundable core deposit (pneumatic wastegate/PWG or electronic wastegate/EWG) and return your core after your upgraded turbo arrives. A Go Fast Bits DV+ diverter valve can be added as an option.
