Melted a piston, now LSX Turbo

[Dirk HX35]

So, I have never made a build thread or anything of that sort so let me know what you think.

I bought my e30 about a year and a half ago and just finished up turboing it.
I did what most people do, bought parts slowly as paychecks allowed.
I'll let the pictures do the talking.

Bought hx35 for $150 and rebuilt it myself.




evo 9 intercooler i cut the inlets off and welded them on straight



replaced the clutch to hold the POWAH
spec stage 3 6 puck and jbracing 8lb aluminum flywheel



Rally Road column pods, jaywood vent panel w/ ecs boost gauge, innovate oil pressure/temp and lc-1


and of course some bay shots...still need to tuck and clean up a few things





I still have to tune the MS2 from whodwho better when I get a chance.

Let me know what you think and if you have any suggestions please let me know!

Follow me on Instagram @Dirk_HX35, that's where most of these pictures are from anyway!
