    Introduction. Sorry for shitty pics

    What's up r3v,
    I originally posted this in the m20 section with an with some wiring questions, but I thought I'd post it in PNW too.

    I've been on here for a couple months searching for parts and cruising build threads, and Im near completing my 2.7i build,
    and therefore near starting the turbo project. I purchased my car from a member on here, and it seems like it was maintained fairly well.

    Was:1986 325e sedan, black on houndstooth, euro bumpers, stock drivetrain except Racing Pros Chip and Magnaflow muffler.

    Now: black/black, fixed buckets, 55 pin harness and motronic 1.3, 325i intake, momo wheel.

    Parts waiting to go on: 885 head (welded jackets?), megasquirt 2 v3.0, generic t3 a/r 50 turbo, ebay manifold and intercooler,
    turbonetics 38mm wastegate, tial blow off valve, ProSport Wideband, and Porsche 42lb injectors.

    Needed: 325i throttle body, 3 inch exhaust, oil feed/return, tuning.

    Some pics:

    As she sits now:



    Thanks for looking, I hope to upgrade my photgraphy before my next post, but in the meantime, if anyone has a 325i throttle body or crank position sensor bracket laying around let me know!

    Thanks for looking-Logan
