Kamotors E30-Turbo to ITB M20

[delamaize]

Im just selling off the m30 and all related turbo parts. Need to recoupe funds, gather thoughts then move on to something else to go crazy with boost.

M60/M62 boosted.

You know you wanna.

Soo considerably worse than I thought.. oh well. Yes new hardware, red loctite, new torque wrench was used. Glad its out of my e30 for good.

[ThatOneEuroE30]

Good god thats destroyed.

[AbsorbantNut]

Ditch them both and get some rtv sealant and never do the gasket again

This. Use "the right stuff"

This is a good plan. It's very important in not to get emotionally attached to a sunk cost or an idea. If it's not right, or was a mistake it's better to admit it and move forward than sink more time, money and emotion into it.

I dunno - the carnage there looks like the damage was done first time round, and the fact the bolts were torqued up the second time was irrelevant as the back of the crank was already cactus.

With all the effort expended, a new crank, bearings & flywheel, and it's all go again??

None the less - the ITB M20 in the picture looks awesome. Can't wait to see the finished pics.

I may have missed it but what headers are you using??

[kamotors]

Contitech braided vac line. Cant wait to install motor.... need longer days.

[Bimmer_man]

That's an interesting fuel rail. At least I think it's a fuel rail.

[stanhayward]

I'm pretty sure that's the vacuum block he built with braided vacuum lines.

Could I see how he did the ABS pump? I'm kinda stumped on how I'm going to do it.

Pretty sure that pic is in a 740il and not an e30. A lot more room in the 7-series.
