Hey guys,
So I purchased a 1988 325is about a month ago and have been battling one issue after another in efforts to get the car where it needs to be.
Here's the list of modifications
MLS head gasket
ARP head studs
t3/t4 .50 trim turbo (if I have my sources correct)
on 15 lbs of wastegate regulated boost
Megasquirt V3.57 PCM.
Walbro 277 fuel pump
The car is running super rich, and I'm aware of that (any tuners in the Upstate SC area?), but it still started and ran great; I left it at a shop to have a new CSB installed and rear main seal while I was out west for a week, but now I'm having gas leakage problems, may be weather related or may not.
Regardless, I've had quite a few E30's and quite a few turbo charged cars, but never a turbo charged E30.
Any insight will be appreciated; I'm at a point where I don't have time to tinker on the car myself (as I'm swamped with work).
I can supplement the help with cash, beer, food, car parts, you name it.
Here's a picture of the car itself.






For those willing, my number is 864-373-1015.
ALSO OPEN TO SELLING, But would rather just get the car where it needs to be and keep it.
