That turbo/manifold/downpipe setup looks great!

[Denny]

Regardless of brand, turbo's break/wear out with time. I will be building a built block on the side to replace this motor so i can make more power.. Looking at a Precision 6262 or larger for the next motor.

totally agree.

I got a spare E30 with a 2.7L in it am really tempted to built it on the side too...

Thanks Matt! Very pleased to see the great fitment, nothing hits or needs adjustment. Bolt on and go, the only thing i did is go down and get higher grade bolts for everything.

Yes, I love the potential these motors have on stock rotating assemblies but everything has it's limit.

I bought mine at a parts store, that is one of the most annoying things to me. TTY bolts are used everywhere, just give me a final torque range not this degree bullshit lol.

Excited to see your build finished!

Got some more work done on the car today. I goofed and forgot to buy an adapter for my oil feed off the block, so monday I will be able to get her fired up finally. Gives me more time to tidy up the wiring anyway :)

Mas fuel-

19lb vs Deka 80lb (thanks KAmotors for the help here)





Downpipe wrapped and re-installed -



Moved the coil and cleaned up that whole area -

YEEEEEEE.

Are you going to loop your charge pipe up and over like that off the compressor?
Since no A/C you have gobs of space under QUE NO?

Kyle, sell me your injectors! the 19lbs

What was used on valve cover and intake manifold? I plan to do this shortly and am weighing pros and cons of expensive powder job vs. crinkle from autozone. Thanks!

You have a PM

I used a 20% wrinkle black powder for both parts. I have never tried the stuff at auto zone, worth a try though!
