Hey buddy. I have a lot of tips that i want to share with you. 1. Put piece of metal mesh on your turbo intake.It stops rocks going in. 2.Buy or weld(tig) new manifold.That one has really bad placement and its going to cause a lot of problems. 3.Move your turbo closer to the front of the car.The more piping you have,more lag you have. You are going to have decompression and lag.Unless you are running intercooler on top of the engine,just move turbo either up so it sits above hood since you dont have one,or just place it under stock radiator. 4.Get appropriate pipes for running boost.Dont try to skim out and buy something from Walmart or Harbor Freight. 5.Get adjustable wastegate.On hot days you'll want to turn it down a bit,and you will have to dissasemble half of the car to change spring. 6.Since you are running stock internals,i dont recomend running above 10 Psi. 7.MUST:Dyno tune the car before and after,and get boost,A/F and oil temp gauges inside a car. My story:Im 26yo AM racing driver.2 seasons ago i built BMW 325i racecar with ebay turbo.Since i was in 2000-2999ccm catergory,my turboed e36 was placed in 5000+ccm category. I was dominating last season since 270hp engine and 900kg car is pretty nimble and quick compared to heavy stangs and chevys. Of course,there were few corvettes that gave me headaches,along with wicked 7 series racecar. I crashed it in July,and swapped to supercharger,and gone full drift build. Now building a 05 Subaru WRX blobeye racecar.

CME hey just Incase you didn't know the m50/m52's came with forged internals from factory. You can run more than 10lbs safely just don't try anything crazy, those blocks should hold upwards of 500bhp before having to swap to better internals!

Head gaskets are known to go out around ~10 psi but other than that they are great to build on. Steel blocks from the factory.

Mesh? Folks need to quit sacrificing their motor fro an extra 5 hp, it needs a filter on it!

i want to guess his turbo hit the side of the engine bay and cracked(ebay turbos are thin, i have one), also he may have located the oil drain wayy too low and had to get another pan(which would be a pain). Ended up getting frustrated and got rid of it is my assumption. Was a cool build though !

Nice! straight six turbo

I literally found your channel tonight because of the miata build and my heart sank when I saw you havent uploaded in a year. binge watched the whole series so far bro. Subbed

So stoked to see this build come together.

Hey man, I am from RECIFE in Brazil South America and you have great songs in your videos, plus great vid...

Love your videos, hope to see you back soon!

Coolest dude ever very humble too that's what its all bout bro keep goin bro best wiches 😊😊

Where you been buddy?

Great video 👍

Just watched this again, and saw you painted over the shark teeth... You really should put them back.

Hey there Bimmer fan... 💪👍

My dude. This shits FIRE! Like dayum

Bro did you Die? We’ve been waiting for a new video for a over a year now. Will you make a goodbye video or a comeback? Or just stay silent?

where the hell have you been!!!!?????? i am stoked to see this build no one has done a good video on it!

Real nice channel dude I’m building a e46 but love the e36 🏎🔥🚀👍👊🤘🎧

Please come back!

Fastest click ever

At work so I cant watch the video but here's a like and a comment before ahead of time (:

*Nice video dude, I will do the same!!*

I like how spaced your manifold runners are. I'm using a SPA bottom mount and the runners are so close and tight that the motor has to be out for access to the exhaust nuts.

Bro really looking forward to seeing this buld finshed.

So thankfull for my carlift and tools now

Hope to see you soon Austin

Cleannn

THE BUILD BEGINS!!!!

Everything here is clearly safety first xD love the video though :P Can't wait to start my own build when i get a car without a damn automatic transmision..

Hope the turbo isn't too low. The oil drain must be able to run back in the pan by itself, or else the turbo will eat the oil (pressure in the bearing will rise and push out the oil). Bought a 325i with low mount turbo once, it had an extra oil pan for the turbo and a pump to send it back to the engine. That was so bad, fail al the time and it smoked like crazy. Also had trouble with my Volvo when I put a bigger turbo on it, then the oil return had a small turn, and same problem again. The oil drain line must be as straight as possible and higher than the oil stand in the engine. Nice to see some real budget build :)

Hey Austin. Digging your build! I'm gonna feature your channel on my weekly news segment this coming Monday

Hey. Nice videos. 😊 You are going to run piping and have the airfilter away from the ground right? And i think you might scrub the air outlet on the turbo when you start running pipes and hoses to the intercooler because theyre going to sit low... I got an m50b25 coupe im going to turbo so youre channel is good to have 👍👍 keep it up 😊

I'm going to turbo mine too. Not sure if it'll work good if you have the return line go to the pan

U r gonna build this in a parking lot?

Is this channel dead? When are we going to get an update on the turbo build?

Looking good dude, bring back the shark teeth tho. I would love to turbo mine but stuff appears to be really expensive here in the UK! Like are fuel is £1:17 a litre man. I have a long list of things I want to change on mine, but it looks like it would be cheaper to buy a different car with the parts already on it, even tho mine is a really solid rust free shell. Keep up the good work, oh yeah I think that's real dedication doing the conversion in a car park :)

lets see ep 3. good luck on the issues

Haven't forgotten about you homie.

I cant believe its almost been a year... I hope you come back one day

🤙So I have a Q I got my turbo pipes cleaned up and remove any oil and make them tight and it make a whistle noise now when I start to open up the throttle and when I close it the classic flutter noise.but now the car feels tighter Before I clean it it was making no whistle sound just the flutter and it was very louder. plus at high speed I felt the car kick forward like a small push idk if it was from the turbo any ideas my friends?

Yeahhhh my bottom mount set up issue right now is that the turbo I have has an internal waste gate (which would be awesome) that hits the side of my engine block... I took my turbo right apart put the exhaust housing up to the manifold I have and I can't even get the exhaust side on with the internal Waste gate:(

Nice videos ✌ Gruß aus Germany

Where do I find pistons / rods / ect to rebuild the engine to handle high boost turbos?

Clock the turbo right feed straight on top and drain straight down .....that should safe your turbo bearings

Can't wait to see a video if the ready car. NEW VIDEO PLEASE

need more vids bro, hope everything is good!

Thats a top mount manifold

i want to guess his turbo hit the side of the engine bay and cracked(ebay turbos are thin, i have one), also he may have located the oil drain wayy too low and had to get another pan(which would be a pain). Ended up getting frustrated and got rid of it, is my assumption. Was a cool build though !

Austin me and you are harbor freight gang 🤘🏽

Update??

Got married and fell off the earth

does anyone know if he has reinforsment plates in the rear subframe or if you need them?

Did you get head studs or keeping the stock bolt on type?

Would you need an engine management system?? Just wondering 🤔

What kind of spray paint do you use to paint your cars?

What about ECU? What people should get for the same build?

How's the Turbo build coming man?

It's 2019 where are you at. Is everything ok man?

I miss this guy.

Where did you put the feed and return for the oil

yoo dude, where the vids at?

We Miss You!

Is this guy still alive ? I need more content already buying my turbo kit pretty soon!
