naits s50b32 turbo build

[Gordvisr]

The bottom starter is actually for the Opel's, The long one for the beemers.

My Opel is running on a BMW starter( the longer one ) currently.

Bought the car like that back in 2002 still has that same starter.

Are you locking the vanos or will you run a management system with vanos control?

If you running vanos I would try and insert a heat plate barrier between the turbo housing and the solenoid housing on the vanos unit.
Just a thought.

I am going to run a management system so will retain vanos..this is just a test fit and will definitely need a heat plate..we made a two piece manifold to make space at center for downpipe so it's a bit close to vanos the turbo is also long

Manifold back from powerkoth.. Coated both inside and out.
