          In 1991 I called Dinan for a price on stage II turbo kit for my e30 m3. Dinan quoted me $10,000 and not carb legal. The 325i Dinan turbo was not carb legal. I use to have Dinan catalogs. It never mentioned carb legal. It just would say off road racing Vehicles.


          According I CARB exemption issued on BMWs only the m30 was certified. So no for the m20 or m70.

                  Yeah throw it up! Lets take a look. I am curious to see the comparison. You wouldn't happen to be the IX Dinan Turbo guy Levent told me about a few years back?

                    Almost a 1 year bump!

                    Wow time flies. I have this kit boxed up in my basement and I totally forget all about it from time to time.

                    Will also entertain interesting trades.

                        What a cool kit. How did you mount the inter cooler and the water lines to it? Any other pics of how this all fit on the cold side?

                          Unfortunately, I do not have any other engine bay pics.

                          See that bolt on top of the intercooler? There is one on the bottom in the same location. There is a custom steel bracket that bolts to that on the intercooler side, and then bolts up to where the airbox used to on the car side. Water lines are super straight forward. You can see a part of them going along the firewall into the water pump. They basically make one big loop going through the intercooler, heat exchanger which is behind one of the brake ducts, and water pump. In line with this, I was always planning on adding another heat exchange behind the other brake ducts. And I suppose if this was ever going to see track time, a reservoir could be added into the system as well.

                                AFAIK every mod that DINAN did was CARB legal, but based on the fact that only 20 kits were ever made, that makes it tough, though with such a large price tag its possible that it was enough to cover the CARB fees
