Ultimate budget build.

[Danny]

Awesome man! This is great!

congrats Danny!

Thanks guys!

Nice. Does it pull a lot harder? What's the ass dyno say?

It does for sure, my gut says maybe 140~150 at the wheels.

IT RUNS AND DRIVES!

Idling:

I'm only boosting about 5-6 psi right now and thats all I can get out of the wastegate actuator as it sits, because its at a weird angle.

But I think I'm in love.

I have to say thanks a million to Nate, (e30nate), His brother Dan, Tim (wtfgerman) and Justin, (stanksbeamen) because they honestly did a hell of alot of work on this car, way more than I did.

There are a fit issues such as hood fitment because of the routing of the oil feed line and I need to route a diverter valve and replace a few vacuum hoses, but that will all get done tomorrow.

So is this going to be reliable? If it's relatively reliable, I'm down to do this next!

[E30_Pare]

I wonder how much power he is going to get with that setup?! Danny says 175hp I want to see what a dyno says when this is completed. GL with your build.

I wish I had the knowledge to do this to my 318. Still have lots of homework to do.

[alpinweib30]

looks good Danny. eager to see how it will hold up. whats the grand total since this is a "budget build"?

[CorvallisBMW]

You might need to find some kind of silicone elbow to replace the stock rubber one at the TB, that thing is gonna explode under boost. Still, great work though!!! Congrats!!

[E30SPDFRK]

Look at that cute little thing!

[golde30]

scary....looks like a grenade with the pin pulled to me. however im a bit biased, i have had no luck with m42's.

[Jesse30]
