this is like a proper break down everyone else always just includes motor trans and brakes and wheels and thats it haha

That's really reasonable for the end result. I'd like to see where it goes from here. After seeing it get built and driven I'm kind of invested in it.

love the vibe and journey with the build. its got me soo stoked for my first turbo build. goal is have it started when i make final decision on which of my cars to do first, and finished before my bday dec 10th. tbh i hope i have so much fun that i blow it up on my bday lol 5k isnt bad at all especially when it can be done for easily half that being resourceful like you mentioned.

Keep loving the E30 it only gets better

Love the E30 build Chris it’s awesome 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿👍🇬🇧👍

Awesome video Chris thanks for the break down..also my head is stamped 885. Thanks man.

Super cool vid dude

And you must be a big E30 guy for life now🤣🔥 they huge bang for buck I’ve realised💯

I had an 87 325 sedan in college… always regret selling that thing. It was a bone stock grandma car with a 5 speed… got it in about 2003-2004 for $1,200 with 120k mikes on it, and it was pretty damn clean! Now I need to get another one and find e30 guys in Minnesota because I’m no mechanic but wanna wrench and learn… Also have a 77’ 911 that was my dads that needs a little lovin.

Молодец! Тоже задумываюсь поставить турбо, пока что сменил эбу и всякие датчики

Good vid man . I’m encouraged by you all. Got mine for $800 + $800 back tags in CA but it’s my bone stock daily with minor upgrades/ repairs. Interested in any and all details and advice

Cheap thrills is always the way to go

Wish I can turbo my e28 someday. Just make it a mad drift sleeper

Awesome, thanks for sharing this info. This give average price estimates..

How are your throttle body shaft seals holding up? I just had to replace mine with a 70mm universal as I found out I was leaking boost. Also found out my valve seals might be leaking…

Do you know anything about turboing a m50 I know the block is stronger but would I need to install a forged crack and pistons?

i like your channel !

No problem with stock ignition coil and wires?

Have you guys done a video yet of a wiring guide for the early square c101 connector to the round connector? I wanna do this type of build when I have all the parts but I don’t exactly want to cut my harness off lol.

We have not, this car has the square connector though. I found a square engine side connector and cut it and wired it to the motronic 1.3 harness. It was fairly straight forward

It's what Turbo M52 swapped E30 cost where I live 😅

I have never actually built one surprisingly, I have bought them complete each time, but I will be starting one in the near future

just curious is that the turbo drain I see wrapping around the back of the engine, headed for the bitch tube.

No megasquirt ECU?? Im turboing this winter got 90% of parts. Running megasquirt n/a currently trying to tune it what a nightmare... It will not read my wideband no matter what I do. You guys ever bother with these ECUs?

Hey man so I’m a little confused , is a super eta a different engine then the b27 ? I have an 84 325e and am currently trying to figure out if I need to do the head swap to the 885

@DENVERBEERANDOIL

2 жыл бұрын

Super eta was a 1988 model year engine only. It combined the b27 bottom end with the b25 head casting and engine management. Your early 325e has a 200 casting head and would need to be replaced with an 885 head.
