    Hey guys, my name is Matt.
    I own a 84 318i that I have been working on for a while now. I picked it up a couple years back for $250.00 with a leaky headgasket then proceeded to teardown the m10 for improvements. build components so far include.
    90 mm forged JE pistons
    Total seal rings
    Cometic mls
    Ireland engineering crank scraper
    Schrick valve springs
    Fresh bearings
    Schneider custom ground turbo cam
    Heavy duty rockers.
    Split second additional injector controller with timing retard.

    My reason for building the m10 were fuel economy and the benefits in handling from a low weight powertrain.
    I am very happy with the outcome. The car certainly Isn't the fastest but it shines in the corners.

        Thanks. The car was in mock up stage in the pic. I just hadn't removed the second one at that point.

          Looks great. I like the plate/blinker delete on the DBs. What kind of numbers you putting down out of that M10?

            From where are you getting vacuum for an internal wastegate and what type of injectors do you use?

                    I like the m10 turbo. The intake looks awesome. How much power do you expect get?

                      Not sure yet on numbers. Missed a group dyno day last weekend. I will post as soon as I go.

                        I'm running stock primary injectors with two 42lb secondary injectors driven by my split second injector controller.
                        Pressure is supplied from nipple on compressor housing.

                            I think it's fantastic that you turbocharged an m10.
                            Car sounds like a blast to drive.
