Currently have a 1989 325is M20. I'm reading through the Maximum boost book to brush up on my turbo knowledge. I'm planning on doing a turbo kit (most likely kamotors, aiming for 350-400 whp). As I get my funds together I'd like to know what can be done ahead of time in preparation. Solid motor mounts, 3in exhaust, etc?
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks guys.
- I've already swapped out my 4.10 rear with a 2.93 LSD. DONE.
- I'm going to make sure the motor itself is up to par. Going to do a compression test, etc.
- Do a tune-up now or wait? Car probably won't run well with BR7ES plugs now....
- I currently have a bad exhaust leak but I think it's far up, may even be a header. Going to take a close look at that. If that's the case doesn't make sense fixing it since a new manifold will replace it soon.
- Going to do 3 inch straight exhaust all the way through, something I can get done now or wait until the turbo is installed?
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks guys.
