M30 swap for my Olive Drab Vert!

[RagtopE30]

so my current plan is to pull the engine back out to address a couple issues such as the slipping stage 3+ clutch. The clutch itself is fine but I have apparently exceeded its capabilities. And I am going to disassemble the block so that I can have it O-ringed. The MLS headgaskets are ok but with the way I drive and the lack of higher octane ethanol they dont last.... High horsepower problems, I know I know! So I am going to spend the next few weeks accumulating funds and getting the iX street ready so I can daily it. Then the heart is coming back out of the green beast for tear down and upgrades. I also plan on doing some further exhaust mods and hood mod for some easily changeable flame throwing short pipes.

Oh not to mention the hardtop is going to be finally painted

And wasted spark is happening when it all goes back together

And flipping the throttle body

yeah..... things are going to be happening.

I'm now determined to break 500 whp and 575 wtq. It would be awesome to break 600 wtq but I don't think I can do that on 93 octane.

Time for meth?

You'll do it EZ. 500hp no freaking problem.

I have already set an appointment to go back after fixing a few things such as the coil wire problem.... I'm thinking GM coil packs. Oh and a larger fuel pump or dual 255 pumps. I'm now determined to break 500 whp and 575 wtq. It would be awesome to break 600 wtq but I don't think I can do that on 93 octane.

Dude you are making me reconsider FI.

[RagtopE30]

And all that power even though my coil wire is sparking out against the down pipe

Looking at my data log and dyno printout there is a lot of room for significant power increases

Ah, I only came across one other car that had this spoiler and it was an ACS tribute car. Looks good.
