So the garret with the .82 housing should be around the money.?

Thats what I got, you should see the boost sooner with your "head job" and cams tho... :P

I think its the best turbo for our application Noel... Go low mount if possible tho as high mount = dollars...

It cant be that much more can it??

Low mount still needs new intake and dump pipes and a spacer made up..so all you need extra is the manifold???

Goin himount col. I am not cutting corners even though It will take me longer to do it. I have seen some hi mounts that are definitely worth hp by their design. I will have some hours in front of me port matching the plenum and the maifold to the head but once again, It will be worth it in the long run. I am even considering slicing the plenum in half just to polish the inside.

BTW, Are blue undys good for any more power?

Anything blue is good

So we're talking something like the Garret GT35 size turbo? With decent cams I can't see a problem, although if you go too big it'll "hunt" My HKS 272's only started to hunt, so I duno if I'd go any bigger then that on the street.

No matter how hard i try I keep coming back to the 35/40 josh. The only other option I can see is the 30/40.

Hey Noel my MSD is getting fixed as we speak. Will see you at the track for some 10s HEY HEY HEY :) .

But if im racing you i will want them to put up a concrete strip in the middle so when you cross over into my lane you wont hit me with all that HP :) .

Is there an echo in here :laughing-smiley-014: Good news submarine. That thing of yours is a true weapon. Cant wait to see it on full song.

Dont worry about me crossing in to your lane. I will have my seeing eye dog to keep on the straight. :)

    • It's also worth noting that I am heavily and unconditionally biased. I've had a lot of cars including some GTRs a fair while ago. I love my BMW's now a lot. They make no sense a lot of the time and the guys on here remind me regularly that I could get something else that does what I want better and cheaper. If you're going to take on an older BMW it's definitely a commitment. If you bail on it early you'll lose money and also the ability for it to put a smile on your face. Stick with it and it just gets better.  f**k I should get into advertising.  
    • Careful with posts like that around here without the flame suit on @cobo_11! 😂😂 My 330i journal is on here too. That car was so good and super reliable. We still have a 130i in the family which is almost identical to the 330i and easier to find in manual. It has also been almost faultless over the 6 or so years in the family.  I used to want an M car a lot more than I do now but if I'm honest and without trying to sound like a wanker, I can get such good performance and handling out of my 335 without needing to worry about all the crap that goes along with M car ownership. I don't need to worry about my bearings or subframe issues or the cost of replacing brakes or suspension or whether it has been impeccably maintained. And I can leave it places and not get upset when it's always filthy.
    • A pretty cool little feature discovered while restoring my seats.     
    • Great write ups / details / photos. I'm sort of on the road to E90 ownership (325i or 330i), haven't hit the fork in the road yet "Yes" | "No", and some of the issues you've faced have me nervous for the age these are getting to nowadays (that wiring, jesus), but I'm guessing the pro's of ownership are still outweighing the con's? Of course, if the bloody tattslotto ROI actually went my way...E90 M3. And I'd have the cash to do all the extra lovely maintenance THOSE require. 😄
    • They sure do, great for when you need to chuck a sickie 😅   You should definitely give the beast a squirt on the track, great to enjoy the car
