    My new car - 325i turbo (370hp@20psi)

    Hi guys,

    Just traded my 335 that some of you might recognize and got this baby instead.

    One picture from this summer to start the thread:


    The previous owner did a 12.046 at 116.5miles on the quartermile track.

    Here are some specs:

    BMW originally 318is model year 1991
    2 door Diamantschwarz metallic with a matte black hood
    Volvo front lip
    sunroof
    Electronic windows
    M-tech I rear spoiler(gonna take that off and put on my huge F40 spoiler) ;)
    9x16" Borbet A's (not on any picture yet)
    Original BMW tow hook, easily removed.

    Interior:
    Cobro Monaco bucket seats
    4 or 5 point belts, haven't decided yet
    No rear seats
    No center console
    Will be putting in a full roll cage or a semi/half roll cage
    Momo alcantara steering wheel

    Engine and turbosetup:

    M20B25 prefacelift with a 9.7 compression, rebuilt in 2008 and now driven around 15.000km.
    MSL steel headgasket, that lowers the compression to around 8
    ARP headstuds
    Intercooler 24"x12"x3"
    3" intercooler pipes
    Borg Warner S200 turbine with a 57mm inducer (comes from a Volvo L120F)
    Splitpulse turbomanifold custom made by previous owner
    3" exhaust
    Vems Standalone with Egt and Wideband sensors.
    wasted spark coil pack
    Walbro 255l fuelpump
    444cc injectors from a skyline
    Large radiator from an E32, custom brackets so it would fit

    Drivetrain, susp and steering:

    Poly gearbox and motor bushing
    Powerflex polybushing in everything
    Getrag 260 gearbox
    UUC clutch pressure plate
    6puck clutch from PPF Sweden
    3.64lsd large case(currently looking for a 3.25lsd)
    Weitec shocks front and rear
    Ebay coilovers front and rear(might upgrade to something nicer when money allows)
    Steering quickener 2:1. 2 rings lock to lock instead of 4.

    This summer it was dyno'ed 370hp and 533 nm. I think a have a dyno slip somewhere.
    That was on 20psi boost.

    The car was choosen car of the year at the local Icelandic BMWclub :)

    Here are a few more pics. I will take new pics next week with the F40 spoiler and black Borbets. I think it will look very rough!
