Hi Guys,
No more pics of MODDED cars???

Anyway, here are some pics of my first E36 328i INDIVIDUAL turbo build, that was sold a few years ago to a fellow fanatics member "Sideways".
This used to be my pride and joy but I was forced to sell it, and regretted the hasty desicion every since..........but its finally back in the family! :blowheart:
Almost 6 years later, a close friend of mine purchased the car from Sideways and sent it back "home" for me to rebuild the engine.
The car was still in excellent condition, special thanks sideways for taking such good care of her!

Here are some pics, I am sure some of you might recognise the car! It is now back in Durbs.

Stock head, just flowed. Bottom end has forged pistons and scat rods with 328 crank. ARP stud kit top and bottom. T66 ball bearing turbo with Fullboost branch.
Making 265wkw, 420Nm on 1 bar boost, pump fuel.....for now! :rollsmile:

Engine Bay required some new paint after an oil leak damaged the paintwork.....my airbrushing skills came in handy....lol

...and finally....engine bay almost identical to my current car.

Hmm, long story on the engine. I will only go as far as saying that Lance did manage to recover some of the money from the guys that butchered the engine down there after we reported to Lance on the findings when we stripped down the engine. But u can speak to him for the details. Anyway, the car is once again pristine both inside and out.

I have one heavily modified e46 M3. Too many parts to list, but she's currently without an engine due to compression loss as the sleeves in the block cracked. But here are some photos of the car before she died. Currently rebuilding. No sleeves this time.

Supercharged running 5psi (less than 0.5 bar) 300wkw with meth.

@nikhil, this car used to be the 'ultimate street car' originally built by Savspeed.

I wonder what a 430wkw e36 feels like :thinking:
The most I experienced was 150wkw

To put it simply..... flipping scary, but I have to admit I don't have the gonads to really push the car past 250kmh.

Hey Boosted,do these top-mount Turbos cause heat related issues under the Bonnet?I was just gonna do a bottom mount setup but the top mounted Turbo just looks so much better.
