nice! I am doing an m52 swap soon. are you going for boost in the future? I ask because of the ARP head studs and head gasket.

Def alot more to be had... Whats up with the vanos around 4-5.5k?

[m52turbo]

Yeah I have my turbo kit already just wanna get all the bugs out with the swap 1st
I adjusted the vanos to 5k with the W.A.R. just for kicks to see if it helps out or not

[m52turbo]

Oh & I got an e34 pan for sale too

[Wanganstyle]

Why not OBD2? makes more power, better for turbo too.

[m52turbo]

OBD 2 = to much BS.
OBD 1 + W.A.R. Chip = done
haha

[Herr Faust Schinken]

i didn't know there was a dyno in Fontana i should dyno my stock m20 for shits and giggles

[Wanganstyle]

OBD 2 = to much BS.
OBD 1 + W.A.R. Chip = done
haha

not really; OBD1 is garbage for brains in comparison- have you ever read the Wizard of OZ? i.e. scarecrow just wanted some upgraded brains>?

its even easier to:

remove obd2 ecu; send to TRM. re-install

no OBD1 required.

OBD1 is for junkyard poopsmith hoarders. so are OBD1 engines IMO.

Use the proper modern brainpower designed by BMW for the engine.


I can see the desire for OBD1 if all your parts are going to be from the pucknpill poop yard; but I cannot relate

[m52turbo]

Well that's your opinion I'll stick with OBD 1 & tune it myself I have now done everything to my own car

[ak-]

Hey not bad. How much did they charge if you mind me asking?

[m52turbo]

$65 for 4 pulls no tuning. I heard He's having a DYNO day this month $45 for 3 pulls

[evandael]

war chip sounds like fun. how many tuning variables do you have control over?

also when you do bewst, what turbo do you think you'll use?

[m52turbo]

The war is fully tunable from idle, p/t to wot timing & fuel vanos control launch control the whole 9 yards. I already have a rotomaster Garrett t3/t4

^wow, that's fairly comprehensive. good luck on the build and please.. post pics!
