      fuck man, you're making me second guess myself on the decision to not buy another e30. I'd need 24v though :shock:

          I don't know all the details, but your exhaust manifold is way better (even though its "just" and adapter. Why do you think he can make more power? Because he dares to turn up the boost more than you? :)

            Thanks for the compliments,
            As for matt's car i think it has more potential then mine does. First he has a 2.8, forged crank, like you said probably better fow then my adapter. But i am going to try to run a high amount of psi when tuned, maybe thats why he thinks i might have more power.

                Yes, that could help you. Watch out for big exhaust pressure.. if the back pressure is higher in the exhaust than in the intake you won't make more power.
                Engine power aside, your engine bay looks really neat. :)

                    Interesting, how can I messure my pressure in the exhaust to know if is enough or save level and not doing more thna the intake?

                      The cleanest M20 turbo install I've ever seen. Normally, I wouldn't even like the ///M striped valve cover, but in your car, it looks badass.

                      Excellent work! :up:

                        Looks great. You going to the Boston Chapter event on 6/19? We'll be bringing all of our turbo cars.

                            Im not concerned about the exhaust back pressure. Its a 3" downpipe dump out. No cats no muffler, no anything. If the exhaust back pressure is what your talking about.

                              That looks so factory, just like it was meant to be there... aprat from the front view of course

                                proper bo matie.

                                am sure exhaust pressure doesnt make that much of difference look at the T5 volvos i could stick my finger in the pipe and the car would stall.
