Haha certainly don't mean to be whoring, I just love older BMWs with turbos, and I like to share with others.

Oh I wish she was mine - I just reposted the build from another thread I saw on Supra Forums and thought you guys would enjoy it.

Oh I thought the owner was registered here.

We can always invite him to join.

That is not a bad idea...

It's very sad the mcoupe is totally. Shawn (the fabricator; Brian's friend) was driving. Him and his GF made it out okay. They spun around into a tree.

Yikes, glad to hear they survived without serious injuries. These cars with big hp really are unpredictable animals that require astute driving - definitely not something your average Joe can hop in and mat the throttle!

The engine and turbo kit were recently transplanted into an M roadie
and sports a mere 475/425 I believe.

The owner "loves" lag in his turbo set ups.
He had it tuned by Nick G (IN PERSON) here in the deep dark south.

A few members have tried to talk him into a smaller turbo, but he wants nothing of it.
Full boost at 5300, whoo hoo

I really have a hard time wrapping my head around the whole "no boost until 5000 + rpm" idea. I understand that you can get really big power numbers going this route with a retardedly over-sized turbo, but to what end? Other than drag racing or posting dyno queen numbers, what is the point? I mean really, you're driving along, minding your own business, maybe got your foot in it a bit, then all of a sudden...BANG! You hit boost at 5k rpm, spin the car out and hit a freaking tree.

That's what always pissed me off about the centi supercharger setup...it would finally start to feel like I had power at 5k rpm, then bang off the rev limiter in no time flat.

Yea thats a reason I dont like larger turbo's either unless you can rev out to 9k rpms

What RPM do you think a GT40r would be at FULL boost?

What RPOM do you think a GT40r would be at FULL boost?

With what manifold?

With what manifold?

There is only ONE manifold that is PROVEN, over and over.

Guys, the post whoring and veiled shots need to stop.

The 666 manifold is proven.
I own it.
I am proud enough to comment on it.

Easy.... easy...

Assuming make an anus out of you and me.

I agree it is an awesome manifold. I'am thinking about getting 1 as well. Can you post some pics of the 666 manifold you own so we can weep tears of joy. I cant think of a better manifold to buy then the Jon Volk manifold. When I buy 1 I will rename it the the 777 manifold so holy and not evil.

lots of (banning) going on in this section....
