HOLY!

What did you do with the old interior?

Sold to other e30 M3 enthusiast in Finland.

so, how much would one of those turbo manifolds cost me?

Sami(=owner of this M3) got the manifold via Risto Virtala, the Finnish drag racer. Check http://www.virtalaracing.com It's hand fabricated in Finland.

How much boost? Power? Torque?

0,7 Bar boost has now been tried, Engine management(Map sensor mostly) limits max boost to 1,5 bar. More about performance after final tune and dyno.

turbo. Do you have any pics of the intake plenum set up?

Plenum in 100% orginal, the silicone tube is just clamped to stock inlet, there is strong possibility that the tube will come of at high pressures.

EDIT: Picture from intake side of engine bay:

First dyno run made 305hp 380nm/5700rpm.


The main purpose of dyno was to get the car street legal in Finland, rpm limit was lowered 5600 (7500 rpm max possible).

Stay tuned, more to come next summer :)
