    Taxi Service Out of Business... Rental Car Service Up and Running!

    Taxi Cab is gone...


    1997 M3 Coupe - Rental Car Silver
    Black Vader Interior
    8.5:1 S52 via pistons
    TRM Stage 2 Turbo
    Ground Control Street
    Assortment of turbo support mods like oil cooler, gauges, clutch and what not.

    Plans? Going to convert to OBD2, Blow Through and Tuning. Right now the car is running on a safe 8psi tune. It can take much more with the engine setup and will handle that just fine. Want to still tune on the 'safe' side and do 400 something wheel horsepower. Going to tackle some upgrades and maintenance items as I need a very tight car over more power... however it is by far the fastest vehicle I have owned. Loving the turbo and the noises it makes!


    Enjoy! I had a helper/assistant today and he was snapping some sweet photos as well!

          That thing looks insane. This is the type of incentives I use as motivation to succeed and get good grades in college.

                  Can I ask why you would like to convert to a blow thru setup?
                  Pro's/con's?

                  Great pictures.

                    It's the newest upgrade for these turbo kits. It is metering on the pressure side. As I understand this allows better throttle response. Better metering. More efficient. Etc.

                            Doubtful. Tried to fix the DEPO headlights(really old version) and while I repaired them to my knowledge they still will not adjust. Car is seriously not driveable when it is dark outside...

                            It lights up the moon they are aimed so high!
