I bought a MS3 Pro for my 01, and for my forged rebuild I want to get rid of the VVT. When I put the turbo in I am swapping out the cams for 264 or 272 duration and heavy double springs, I don't want the fragility and problems of the VVT system in my 500-600hp build (for what little power it gives). Is there something I can do tuning wise to compensate for this? Or is it as simple as leaving the solenoid connector unplugged when the BP4W head is installed?

 

Leave plug unplugged. Tune as usual.

You doing a BMW transmission for said 600hp?

 

ZF 5-speed and Getrag 3.42. 24.5" tire

 

Cool, make a build thread, would love to follow a 600hp build
