Is there a way to convert a P1S to dual nozzles? This would be to allow the use of two incompatible filaments (PLA and TPU).
That would be nice I wish I could do that with my x1c.
It is not currently possible to add a second nozzle to X/P/A series, and Bambu will never offer that as an add-on to any existing printer. The necessary changes make an entirely new printer design more economical to develop, produce, and purchase.

Let’s be honest—Bambu designs for obsolescence, plain and simple. This is a platform built for modification, yet Bambu treats upgradability like a threat. The hypocrisy—and the exploitation of their customer base—is hard to ignore. Contrast that with Prusa, which supports upgrades across three generations of printers. You don’t have to love Prusa, but at least they build machines with a future. Bambu? They toss you aside the moment the credit card charge clears. Think they’ll ever adopt a user-first ethos? The evidence and forum-wide complaints says otherwise.

An idex system would be nice, but the cost of the extra toolhead, extruder and drive system, and replacing the firmware and controller boards, would make it not worth the effort, plus you’d get a smaller build area.
A chimera type system would require an extra extruder and controller boards, too. Converting bbl stuff, is not worth the hassle, or expense.
I’m thinking, for me, I’d wait for the bondtech indx system, and install on some other klipper running printer.
Thanks for the replies. I was just asking. Didn’t mean to stir up a hornet nest.
