So the other day I finally went standalone. I'm using ClassicDaily's PNP and Individual coil setup. I was having cutout issues when I would go WOT. Switching to this new setup has been a great experience. All of my issues that was having in the high rpms are no longer present. Classic Daily is a member on here( jakeb ). Hit him up if anyone is interested in ecu besides MS.

It’s a shame you didn’t find out the root cause as it would be interesting to know and be definitive in terms of solving the issue89 E30 325is Lachs Silber - currently M20B31, M20B33 in the works, stroked to the hilt...

Almost every thread on this forum and others including FB pointed to going standalone. I did everything except swapping the harness out. The harness is what jlevie did. I looked at used harnesses online and none that I found look as good as mine looks right now. That being said I believe the issue was with the ignition wiring or one of the supporting components. I did replace all of these items with oe or name brand products. I planned on going standalone anyway, because I'm turboing the car. As far figuring out what the route cause was, I was really tired hitting a wall with this issue. I wanted to drive the car and enjoy it. Buying this has allowed me to have my car back.89 E30 325is Lachs Silber - currently M20B31, M20B33 in the works, stroked to the hilt...

Ive swapped parts and issues resolve temporaily and many weeks later back to square one, hopefully not in your case though as you probably have atleast elliminated several potential soucres. Not saying your issue was with trigger but it is not uncommon for people have had issues with triggers on standalone MS etc with similar issue of breakdown at topend. tbh you probably needed to look at diagnosis with a scope triggers and the primary/secondary coil to get to the bottom of it. i would love a picoscope but a good one is spendy once you get all the bits

The non-pucked 300hp FX clutch from eBay is what Jake has had good luck with. I drove it, it’s grabby but not nearly as bad as a pucked disc. A lot of the internet (incl me at one point) will suggest a 618 pressure plate- I had one in Linda and thought it was too stiff for a car you drive a lot.
This is what I’d go with:

Also, 300hp and turbo, I wouldn’t touch the bottom end man. Do some studs, a genuine head gasket and call it a day. Do comp/leak down to see how healthy things are if you’re worried about it.

So about a month ago. My car made a loud pop noise and started running rough. Meaning at rpm it had a bad vibration and roaring noise. It was also hard to get into gear, if it would go in at all. So yesterday my brother and I finally laid under the car and removed the transmission. I thought that the strap on my pressure plate broke. Well, I was right. It scarred inside of the bellhousing pretty good. But other than that everything should be ready to just replace. I'm going with a clutch masters FX300 and RHD flywheel.
