i wouldnt go that far but it is very general i can add a ton more but it comes down to your wallet

You dont need to do too much to the motor but also depends on what you idea of a rebuild is? You can get away with stock compression and pistons depending on the power leave your after 200ho isnt hard to do, a good mls head gasket and caps screws for head bolts pull them down to 65 ft/ib you can use the stock cam without an isssue. As for the exhaust manifold "j" pipes work well and cheap to do the chinese manifolds work ok also Scarles carry them, keep with the stock intake for ease of the throttle etc change the vacuum valve for the booster their a pain in the butt and leak use one off a late model japper doesnt need to be turbo. Change pump to a evo 1-3 or any aftermarket also change to a larger fuel filter easy job repco carry a good selection, as for injectors if you use the ones from a m42b18 they are lucas high imp 240cc and x6 will support 300hp and will drop straight in. You can keep the stock ecu/dme and afm to which you can suck through or blow thru the easiest would be suck thru they will also voltage cut at 4.8 volts you can put a bolt stop inside then and set it to 4.7, no need to touch the ignition they dont run a lot of advance so need to retard it for up to 10psi which is over a 50% gain in power. to control the injectors use an apexi AFC works great easy to use oil feed tee's off the oil sender switch oil return can run around the front of the motor to the high side of the sump use a -3an line and 19mm return. If you chose to intercool its whatever you can fit into the front doesnt need to be massive anything at this power level is better than nothing keep the piping to 2-2 1/4 inch's for response sake, its easier to use a turbo with a built in waste gate like a evo 2-3 or GTST RB25/20 due to the room issue and external makes things hard. This a brief over view of ones ive done on a budget if you intend to spend more then aftermarket ecu etc adds to the cost but you should be able to do the whole turbo setup under 2k. You dont need a bunch of power in the car to wake it up my m42b18 e36 admittedly has good stuff inside the motor but still runs a stock ecu with a mapecu3 piggy back and makes a lazy 270hp and makes fools out of m3 e46 ( well it did the other day the owner got a bit p.i.s.s.e.d was bloody funny) i can add much much more but most like the basic stuff hope thats some sort of help.

what would you like to know

ah what no race seats? spent my day installing and tuning a mapecu3 into my e36 turbo drives great beats the c.r.a.p out of any reflash

i did ask about the diff but you didnt reply

was a p.i.s.s take

spotted a red a blue a green bmw driving the other direction on the motor way........

should have 8 bolts on the side where the axles go in

you sure its a large case i can only count 6 bolts

thats good looking stuff dude, but do remember when the throttle body parts company from the manifold under boost you no longer have rpm control nor brakes not a nice feeling even when you key off

WRC developments use mitsi based stuff only as far as i was aware try dave@Dtech tauranga hes one of my very good customers see what he may have he also tunes all the V8 super tourers

There's people closer to you that can do a remap with pretty good pedigrees behind them, im working with someone that i cant mention to start doing remapping BMW's in Auckland as ive seen a few done locally as such and wasn't to impressed with the minimal gains you need to remember remapping/reflash is one of the easiest things to do after all the factory did all the hard work for you all that happens is a few tweaks here and there and off you go. I use to do tons of it years ago using an emulator which worked well just time consuming finding the maps as for your 288 cams thats number doesnt mean a lot what happens at .010 .050 .100 .200 tells what it can do im currently having cams done for M42 and M50 which i must put a video up on my Facebook of an e30 running a m50 using them sounds nasty at idle and runs well past 8k without float.

dumb question but tell me your not running that fiber glassed throttle glued in setup

theres nothing wrong with what you said and many people think the same i get it daily with customers even with turbos they seem to think are rated at the wheels F1 turbos barely had enough torque to get out the pit gate until the turbo turned on and made 500 odd ft/lb but still topped over 1000hp, audi lemans diesels made 600hp but had sooo much torque they had to be run though a splitter box before it went to the gearbox to reduce torque as they couldnt build a gearbox that could handle it. people like quaife rate all there boxes by torque input

eg: you can have 300hp and 140 ft/lb of torque or, 300hp 400 ft/lb or torque eg: 350 chev thus why hp ratings dont mean a thing as per mentioned about clutches

its also pleasing to see someone else that knows how things work

horsepower doesn't mean a thing with any gearbox its the torque rating your interested in

i think that power number really wont be an issue for him but your correct brent it will become an issue at some point you can get a hollinger under 10k that will atleast give some piece of mind

but if you look closely i also have a lot more turbo fit even in a e34 which by the was the engines in both cars sit on the same angle so it still applied to the standing up part with regards to not making engine mounts if you ever intend to drive it on the road itll need a cert for the everything and mounts are part of it. as for drags? hahaha how about 20 laps around a circuit life is longer than a 1/4 mile even with a motec exhaust

my s.h.i.t box e36 m42 work hack run out of fuel at 300hp haha guess its time to change the fuel system again !! thought i would mention that hope your spending great attention to yours on this setup?

bargain you couldn't build it for that

go onto my FB page and checkout my m50 build "motorsport engineering"

+1 my NASCAR clutch cost me 300us flywheel i made but around 500 to buy but some need to find out the hard way

2500 lb OS GIKEN single plate

hahahaha ive given up doing that too many tossers cant understand what your meant to do for the sponcer they think its free ride and unless your on the world stage dont even try if you cant afford to go racing then change hobbies
