Usable it is, that's for sure. My buddy is going to chime in eventually and give his driving impressions on his car.

Dyno numbers will come if we can make it happen before the winter with my buddies e21. There really are not any dynos within an hour- hour and a half of where i live.
It would come with install instructions and details about the kit.Last edited by jakeb; 10-02-2012, 09:03 AM.www.classicdaily.net

On another note my buddy with the e21 got 23mpg on the last tank and we were beating the piss out of it. A lot of that was tuning so we were doing pull after pull.www.classicdaily.net

Hey guys, the E21 JakeB is referring to is my car. Jake was instrumental helping me piece it together and we've been tweaking the tune like electrical engineers with OCD. Got about 600 miles on it since the build, motor has over 140k. Like mentioned before, we still need to get it on a dyno to really get the tune perfect, but for now its really quick and we've been conservative on timing. The only thing I had to modify on the turbo is the internal wastegate size...its originally ~19mm but I ported it to basically a 24/20 oval. Before that i was boost creeping up to 14 psi!! I may switch to some colder plugs prior to getting on the dyno. Right now we have it tuned to 9 psi, will be taking it out to an autocross in a few weeks and i hope to get some videos up. MPG wise I've been driving it pretty hard and still getting around 25mpg for anyone who cares, pretty sure it would be near stock (I used to get 32 on long trips) if I was cruising at 70 all day. My iphone dyno says its 0-60 in 6.3 sec with wheel spin 4k+ in 2nd gear.

So would the tune included on the chip be a copy of the tune developed for your car?The first car I ever rode in was an e30

There is enough interest so I am planning on moving ahead with the project. Sometime around Christmas or before..
The tune was done on an e21 with an e30 m42 as well as an 02 with a m42. Both turboed with a similar setup.
I will also offer tune adjustments for life for free if needed. Different gas, etc. If you are a little lean or rich here or there I will adjust and send you a chip. No Chargewww.classicdaily.net

I have an ostrich2 emulator with tunerproRT to tune. Along with a wideband. Then burn the chips with a willem programmer.www.classicdaily.net
