Right now I'm just waiting for everything to finish getting here.
So far parts that are here or have been ordered

3" intercooler piping
Massive front mount
New front control arms

Manifold I'm going to be using is made by rapid spoiling Industrys.

What will the car be used to do,,,,,,,,, burn tires ,, cruising ?

[Dirty3024]

Honestly Just fun power wise I would like to see low 400s. I just wanted to have something that I could take to the car show or thrash at the track.

[ak-]

Don't think you'll get to 400's with the Miller stuff. That stuff is real finicky.
You've got some nice parts going on though!

[Dirty3024]

Didn't know about any restrictions With the Miller stuff. I know when I had the car oringally tuned it was a pain in the ass trying to find a computer to work with it. I'm going to contact them tomorrow about there new turbo kit and see if they worked all of that out.

Don't mind me I need two more post then i can use tap to talk. Make uploading pictures Easier.

Installed the intercooler today. Honestly didn't think I was going to have cut this much out of it to get it to fit.

Nice that I can now use the app and not have to verify every post. Any way here's some more pics.

After fitting up intercooler I installed the new seats and gauges.

Great looking cabrio you have,,, and i can see you have the hardtop and rollcage also..

small OT as difference between M20 turbo and other engines,,,

do you know the weight of your car............. with turbo,,,incl cage+hardtop,, I would really like to know !!



i was using my cabrio ,,drifting ,, and driving a lot on the Nürburgring,, but to be honest. an E30 that is oem 300 lbs more in weight vs 2d car is not a great solution,,

i have been using 2 powerful engines i can see you have strut brace,, that is great,, but as the car is a vert i really recommend X-brace,, i had both and there was a colossal difference,,
today i have neither,,,and i can really feel the difference,,,


looking forward to see more

I have the car fully gutted factory power top is removed. All the sound denting and the weight in the trunk. Deleted the power steering and the AC.

Also swapped out the factory seats for the Sparcos so hopefully dropped some more weight there.

I have the mason lower x brace as well and your right probably the best bang for my buck handling wise. I ordered a DTM fiberwerkz hood and trunk to hopefully shave some more weight off of it. Once I get the car fully done I'll get it weighed because i really wanna know as well. Seeing not to many people have fully gutted a cabrio.
