about to pull the trigger on some parts and start the most ultimate budget turbo M50 build of all time. (Emma approved 10/10 would smash all day and nite)
Ideas so far in order of importance:
1. UNDER $1000 BUDGET
2. All accessories must stay. (air conditioning) (washer bottle)
3. Reliable
4. No more than 10PSI
5. 300 hp goal ??
Plans:
ENGINE STAYS IN CHASSIS
Stock 540i exhaust no cats into 2.5 collector V band style so I can switch back and forth if needed.
Chip tune, stock maf stock injectors, maybe 21.5s if worse comes to worse.
CX racing turbo internally gated t3/t4 oil cooled only $200
Ebay e36 bottom mount mani $259
Volvo intercooler mounted in front of radiator $?? junkyard
-10AN oil drain. (need to get another pan)
2.5 piping $50?
1 step colder plugs
knock off blow off. $15
some sort of AFR on the cheap. maybe not. $??
no boost control
nothing crazy, just simple.
My engine should handle it really well. I did all that port head work and a full top end refresh with ARP hardware. It should be fun.
In b4 haters for ebay junk. Ill be a lab rat and risk an engine. Whats the worst that could happen??
