318is turbo build threads

[hellakush]

anyone have any good links for some build threads?

[hellakush]

ok, don't worry about it as it seems to be pointless.

There are a bunch on e30tech...

[blueapplesoda]

Look in my sig. Still working on it, but the turbo should be in 2 weekends from now if all goes well.

you live a state away. any chance you will be in the mood down the road to do turbo? :D


i'm not an enginehead yet so what would my 1990 318is have in it? the m40 or the m42?

That's not very promising for your turbo future.

I have a fairly complete build thread here on r3v in the projects section. Did you search at all?

Also some good ones at www.m42club.com

Again there is one in my sig and no its not finished. Will be boosting before 2011.

and your car will have an M42...M40 is the engine Euro late model 318i got. You guys didn't even get it there :p

thank god too, a SOHC timing belt version of the M42? yuck. although the belt may actually be more reliable in this case than the chain. :p

[e30guydownunder]

In cases where the owner actually gets the car serviced yes. Unfortuantely most 318i these days are young blokes slappers or being driven around by the original owners who probably shouldn't be driving. The only time the belt gets replaced is when the headgasket gets blown.
