      Experience on maintenance

      We have all read horror stories on turbos...the latest on the for sale section but I thought I would post here instead.

      You've done lots of research

      are all turbo e30 temperamental?

      does it require you to be a wrench?

      sounds to me like too much boost is the problem

      but clearly the engineering is lots more involved.

      Can you recommend a site that talks about the pros and cons.

        ^Turbo E30 can be very reliable, just need to have a good tune! you need to have a decent amount of mechanical skills to do a turbo build. If you can swap out a set of headers you should be able to install a turbo kit.

          give me a few months to save up and you'll be hearing from me.


          great work btw. that /Tuned feature was kickass.

            Seems like a pretty comprehensive kit - especially for the price.


            So how much of a kickback is Matt Farah getting per kit sold? ;-)

              Would love to do this on the IX. Even low boost would be awesome!

                Great build and congrats on the Tuned feature!! I plan to buy your kit after my motor build/refresh.

                  If I wasn't already boosted, I would seriously consider this kit from Kameron. Solid dude.

                  Still looking forward to that "tuned by KAMotors" sticker. :)

                        What engine prep do you recommend with this kit?

                        ARP's
                        MLS HG
                        Etc.

                          If your car is already well maintained I'd say just do head studs and a fresh goetze head gasket, timing belt and your good.

                          If not I'd do a timing belt/water pump, intake manifold gaskets, VC gasket etc. as well.

                            Thanks for the above.

                            Is the stock HG able to hold 15psi?

                              stock head gasket w/ head studs is good for a lot more than 15psi. I've been running it up to 20-23psi on occasion.

                                I've pretty well done all that, along with a full rebuild. I really want one of these kits but I'm afraid my bonus is already spent for this year. Any chance you will keep these going through next year?

                                I enjoyed a the few minutes of that video I watched, always nice to put a driver to a car. Your car is amazing, nice work!
