      I lol's @ power "passed 7k". Just awkward to hear that haha.

      Are you fine with how late the turbo comes on? Or do you think the 3.73 makes up for it?
      What would you change?

          I've fixed the AFR up a bit past 6200rpms so it should be up a bit more at 7k now, my spool up AFR is a bit rough but I'm really not sure as to why my turbo spools that late. Its the equivalent to a gt35, I get some boost by 3300rpms but not full until around 5500rpms. so its really not much better that the holset I had.

          its fine with the 3.73 since my revlimter is at 7300, I easily make 60mph in second gear by 7k.

              added 4 degrees of timing to first gear load areas above 2800rpms and below 5k rpm at loads around 80kpa and below but above 30 kpa and I now get 5 psi in first at around 5k which is almost an entire 1000rpms sooner in first gear.. Sooo basically huge improvement, a little lean under light cruising but that will be fixed soon.

              so basically my late spool was a big timing issue, it felt very "flat" before but now it feels peppy and very responsive in on and off throttle situations, should be pretty killer for auto-x.

              and I need to get a video for you guys, I've never heard another turbo e30 make this insane sound, my down rev past 6k sounds similar to an e46 m3.

              its that glorious bmw race car rasp that my car lacked.

                      Very impressive... Can I ask what you did for the oil filter and oil cooler lines?

                        oil filter is relocated to behind the fog blank area.
