my turbo project is taking forever, and I'm 95% sure about hacking the entire thing, selling all the parts I've accumulated so far, and just fixing my car to use as a beater/track car.
This is the motor recipe I've come up with if anyone's interested in my many many months of research.
-stock "i" head
-+1mm bored out block
-venolia 8.5:1 CR pistons
-Crower E36 M3 forged rods
-524td crank knif-edged and lightened.
this is what I'll have for sale (95% sure on this, price is negotiable)
325i head - complete
-new valves, and guides
-re-machined surface
-pressure tested
-mint condition
-bead blasted valve cover
-I want at least $500 for it. I spent well over $600 on getting it reconditioned.
524td crank
-examined by machine shop
-mint condition, no scratches, perfect journals, coated w/ oil to prevent rust.
-looking for somewhere around $300
Saab intercooler - $120
"i" Intake Manifold - $50
"i" throttle body - $50
"i" exhaust manifolds - $50
-all 3 of the above for $120
Megasquirt Fuel Injection Management System
-Laptop programmable
-Fully built
-includes ALL options (Stimulator, MegaView, Relay Board, 2.5bar MAP sensor)
-$300 (that's about how much it cost to buy all the parts, but you'll get it all put together by a professional electronics technician)
NEW T3/T4 .63a/r turbo
-custom built
-externally wastegated
-completely new
-at least $450
JDM Toyota Supra Twin Turbos
-ceramic fins
-center manifold
-perfect condition, no shaft play on either turbo
-$200
