Turbo M42. The journey to 300+whp

[Massimo]

All I see going on is a whole lot of excusses to why the turbo is not up and running. Stop buying more cars and finish the turbo god damit!

e30 enthusiast?

yes.

[e30guydownunder]

nice work man, loving the excuses to keep the turbo M42 up on stands, makes me feel less sad about going SR and being 12 months down the drain and still not close to full potential. Respect! Nice stable you got going.


BUT

Get the turbo thing out and about!

**EDIT** my thing cracked 350hp last night, get yo ass into gear

[m3/e30fanatic]

you bought that 318?!?! the guy was selling it for 700 was going to go buy it but you beat me to it. the wheels where worth more then the car. im guessing you took them off and put bottle caps. saw them on craigslist for sale i believe! good luck!

Just read through the whole thing. I think the M42 is the most underrated e30 engine, even stock.

It's a funny lump. When your out by yourself you start to believe all that baby M3 stuff. Then when you try to show someone else, they just look at you and shake their head.

Still.....

Love my baby M3.

That's the truest thing I've heard about it. I never really think 'baby m3' but it feels zippy and fun until you're actually next to someone in a straight line.

[Thizzelle]

it's not a dragster, it's for going around corners fast

[MF DOOM]

Okay, fuck you for doing a wood grain valve cover. Been wanting to do to that but i cant manage to stay in the same state as my car for more than a few months (or keep it running). Is it a hydrographic film thing? Looks good. Might as well do your compressor too.

I don't know why I'm not subscribed to this. I need motivation to keep working on my car. I can't even call it a turbo build at this point.
