Featuring a tough 95A durometer polyurethane and Black anodized 6061-T6 aluminum sleeve, our BMW E39 Performance Poly Dif Bushing eliminates the deflection factory rubber bushings permit. The connection between your right foot (and your seat) to the wheels is improved. Removal of this slop allows for crisper power transfer from differential to wheels, which means better throttle control while carving a canyon road, drag racing, sliding the rear end out, or just driving to work. This is achieved without the harshness or vibration associated with delrin or solid differential mounts.

Last year, we sent VW Brand Ambassador Jamie Orr on a trip all across the country in a pre-production MK5 Sportwagen we affectionately called the Rallywagen where it ended in the Arctic Circle. This year we picked up a VW MK7 GTI and decided to build it here at ECS to debut at SEMA and then head South to drive all the way to the tip of South America on some of the most demanding roads. Rallywagen 2.0 was fully constructed in-house by our team of engineers.

Under heavy use your stock rubber clutch line expands, resulting in a mushy pedal feel. This expansion is even more prominent in aged and weathered rubber lines. Turner Motorsport stainless reinforced clutch lines provide more confident and dependable shifting by maintaining consistent line pressure, long-lasting corrosion resistance, and increased protection from failure. The lines are reinforced with braided stainless steel mesh, affording superior expansion resistance over Factory and OE style clutch lines.

Turner designed their short shifter for all drivers. The weekend warriors, the trackday monsters, and even the daily drivers. They wanted to make something that made sense for any BMW enthusiast. For those who want to drive your car to the track, drive some hotlaps, and then drive back home, they developed a rally lever extension. Their rally lever extension allows you to keep your hands close to the steering wheel through shifts, in efforts to quicken shifts and reaction times on the track. The rally lever comes off and on in seconds with the unique locking design they engineered.

Turner has developed bushings designed to upgrade your driving experience while providing lasting quality for years to come. Turner bushings sport an 80A Durometer Polyurethane (about 30% stiffer than stock) for a comfortable street upgrade, without unnecessary stiffness and decreased ride quality. These bushings include specially designed internal features to retain grease for a quiet and low maintenance experience. The specially designed delrin insert also matches the OE profile of the control arm. This provides a smooth running surface for the poly, extending life.

Sure, the X5 isn't a track monster, but you don't need a supercar to appreciate what a few extra horsepower can mean after a long day of work, with a kid screaming in the back seat, or when you're trying to haul ten-too-many bags of mulch in an attempt to limit trips to Home Depot over Memorial Day weekend. Individually, these particular products each let you capitalize on more available horsepower: TMS Power Pulleys reduce parasitic losses (shown to free up as much as 11hp), aFe's filter flows better than stock, helping your engine breath easier and make the most of each revolution

The new Turner Motorsport Turbo Side intake gives your N54 huge potential for gains, while transforming the look of your engine bay. This kit relocates the OEM inlets and intakes to the Turbo Side of the engine bay, for maximum performance and power gains, while relocating the coolant expansion tank to the other side of the engine bay, where the stock airbox is normally located. The factory inlets are poorly designed, and cutoff very sharply. This causes a choke point for airflow, causing the N54 to fall off in the upper range of the power band.
