hi, wastepipe is around the 5 inches,if i do it again would plumb it down as there stacks of room under the block,nevermind. same turbo unit as the last project,t61 powermaster with a 68 exhaust.the 61 could go to a t70 as this is going to flow s**t load of air.same with the hot side,go to 81.but i'm biulding for great low to high mid range so it should have great responce.very possible it wil choke at the planned redline of 7k rpm but for the three times a yr that it will see a track...... wastegate is 50mm,tial. ecu was a left over from the last project (e28) ems 8860. all going to plan,on the road late feb

hhahahahah, that remindes me of when Brent was working up in hern-bay,selling tv's,stereo's etc. shop also repaired stuff out back. not cool when they were asked to repair a dildo. bag it came in smelt alittle fishy. M

Hi all, just bought another e34 for the wife,as she broke the last one. this one is an SE model with a few extra bits. problem is-the fan cant push much air into the cabin. have removed most of the plastic around the console,only to find one motor has broken off its seat.no biggie. did find a sticker that says that this car has been fitted with a mico filter. guessing that thats the problem and that it needs to be removed. anyone know where it comes out?/where to look,cant seem to see anything obvious. cheers marty
-
maybe a dumb Q, but are you biulding an e34 race car?? if so;- cool engine mods, or stripping out as much as poss? marty
-
yes i have a set of 4.they are 235/35 though. all have enough tread for a wof.cheap.

another site thats most useful is the www.not2fast.com engine specs,turbo sizing,a/f intercooler options/water injection etc either way,making more HP = $$

one way to answer your Q is, to ask yourself; Am I planning to keep it????? how much do really want it? how much am i prepared to spend? how much over and above am i willing to spend when the budget blows out? will i keep at it to finish it,or will it be another '90% compelete' trademe auction? Is my job safe,so i can pay for it,and able to pay the mortgage/rent? if i do sell it,will someone buy it? knowing these simple answers will help in deciding on what you want. If all check lights are green, go for the V8, two blower option. even better still V12 twin hairdryer setup. check utube endsless laughs that kit is cheap,and easy to setup in the car.add 3-4k for injectors and a stand-alone ecu fuel pump,plumbing,bits and bobs.and be perpared to fix crack welds,replace turbo etc
