i have just purchased this mainfold, i relise its for twin td 05 / 06 turbos, but i cannot afford these,

what oem style turbos would suit this manifold, it has 3 bolt flanges for turbines,

subaru td turbos may work but there 3 bolt flange has a bolt offset,

Mitsubishi Pajero diesel turbos non gate ones) have the proper 3 bolt flange could these housings adapt to another turbo easily?

any more suggestions? twin 16v rb20's? vg30's? (changeing flange)

they need to support 750hp, this will justify the laggy t88

***EDIT R31Nismoid***

If you want to sell them, post them in For Sale

Otherwise questions only here. Thanks

Hey man - why not have a look at a pair of TD04s? AFAIK they are the same flange pattern as TD05s and they are a dime a dozen here in New Zealand because of people with GSR Lancers upgrading from them to TD05s or bigger. A pair of TD04s leaned on should be able to make around 300awkw and should be pretty tractable as well.

Trust turbos are made by Mitsubishi, maybe check around for some Evo turbos. I use the gaskets as the checking template, cheaper than buy a turbo and finding it doesn't fit and easier to carry around than a manifold.

You can't use a diesel turbo, they don't hand the much higher exhaust gas temperatures from a petrol engine.

:D

    • Out here E90s are the cheapest way into a sporty-ish car because everyone knows just how expensive the repairs can get. 8-10k USD for an automatic 335i. 
    • Noted. Have noticed BMW are more 'high maintenance' for sure. They've attracted my attention as I think the used car prices seem reasonable vs other options, and the extra quality overall vs a commodore / camry / corolla or similar of the same vintage is appealing, especially the interior, and they are more on the sporty side whereas the others mentioned can be more cruising or economical A-to-B only.
    • Haha yeah I know, this is SAU after all, why are we talking about BMW's of all things!? I hear you on the 'don't have to worry about it' side of things. Having been fortunate enough to be have been able to buy a brand new motorbike or two...never really enjoyed them as much as I'd have liked as you worry so much about where you park it, will it get scratched, stolen, attempted theft, knocked over, etc...and yes dirty. Older less valuable bikes you can just go where you want and park it wherever and not really worry that much in comparison. And who cares if it gets dirty! Never owned a V8, and have had my eyes on VE / VF commodores for years but with their prices climbing so high, the M3 has come into focus more as prices are much closer than I've ever seen...is it a potential contender now?...of course need to factor in the S65 'maintenance' especially and like you said general M car 'tax'. One can dream anyway. But more on the reality front - did read the whole 330i thread as well and was a great read too, both threads enlightening as I've never even driven one of these cars! I do recall 330i didn't seem to have the same amount of issues for almost the same car (turbos and related differences notwithstanding)...perhaps down to getting it earlier in it's life so looked after better than the 335i? Perhaps so as your 130i has been good and quite similar, so finding a car that's been looked after well is the especially-crucial-BMW-first-step.
    • Nice. Dont worry about the time of not running. My current skyline hasn't run since I bought it. About 8 years ago.
    • 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.
