haha hey thanks for the help guys...

@Divinci.. no probs man!! thats why were here!! to learn new things from each other!! jack al u want haha!

@...everyone else.. im took her for a spin today.. although she's a bit dead in 1st and 2nd.. from 3 she comes alive lol! was thinking instead of the lsd and cams etc etc.. why nt js turbo? i think i can boost .5 bar on stock internals?

i just sorted out the head, had to get another 1.. then the m3 front bumper, crystal indicators, skirts, m3 diffuser, boot lip, branch, bonnet.. bla bla bla.. so i have a hole in my pocket lol!! so this is like a plan for the future when i get some spare cash lol

thanks for al the input guys!!

now you're talkin man!

F/I is the way to go man, this will be money well spent instead of spending thousands on N/A bolt ons which yeild little gains. Just make sure you use a reputable company and u get good backing.

Happy Days:thumbsup:

dude go on my website www.streetracer.co.za on the main page at the bottom there is a featured video!
Its my friends E46 323i 2.5l engine we turbo'd! 0.7bar and it shunts like all hell broke loose!!! ok he has done internals and dropped compression! but 0.5 will do no harm depends on km's on the car! and if you loose a dice dont go get spanner happy and turn the boost up a little bit!! seen some nice projects die that way!

 

[sykotic]

yeah i know!! but i can control myself... il throw away all the spanners haha! plus i was thinking, it will work out cheaper and even if i have to sell the car later on id wana get some of my money back.. i know guys who really modded up cars but you never get back wat u spend :cursin:

What would a turbo setup like you are suggesting cost anyways?

Reliability and maintenance are always an issue ...:mmm:

e36 325i what exhaust system would be best ? TNT , Viper or just M3 branch with std sysytem? Have heard some e34 520i's ( mostly automatics !! )that have deep sound , that sounds nice!!!!!
some 323i e30 automatics - chrome bumper model had 3.46 diff ratio , dont know if it fits e36

thanks

i have a e34 520i with a free flow on it dont know what because i bought it with it on, manual and it sounds like a machine:thumbsup: ie: 325is LOL i have also put a snorkle to the air filter and a k&n air filter i am taking her to streetracer to have a ecu fitted in a few months will post a dyno sheet....
book says 110kw and 0-100 in 10 sec
i have timed a 0-100 in +/- 7.9 sec so i think a few small mods help but then again i am not in your guys league :bawling:

Go for the TNT full system... branch plus exhaust!!! my brother gained 14kw with theyre full system on a '94 325i.. but if you do zorst you will do good to chip it afterwards to get the most out of your exhaust! while you at it get your hands on a bmc replacement filter nother 4kw and 8nm gain!
