That seems to be the going idea lol I guess I'll try it first hand and let everyone know what happens. I hope it lasts a long long time but if I blow it all to pieces I will just start over with a k24/20 and build internals.

If everything goes well I'll have it all together in 2 months. Also as usual there is going to be hiccups but hopefully it will be done soon.

Turbo and side goodies are paid for, should get it in a couple weeks. I'll post unboxing photos and share where I am at on the turbo setup then. Also I haven't done a good in car video so I would like to do that as well before the turbo setup is started. You know for a good little comparison haha.

Actually my buddy has a channel that we are using for several cars. I have a vid on there messing around with an lt1 from when I had the EK hatch and a stock ecu. It was pathetic in comparison to now haha. Look up East Side Fast Rides. We have a pretty damn good feature of a friends BMW 330i Dinan on that page you should check it out.

Yeah he want's it to look that way lol. Since then he has built it with a big *** cam and a higher comp (not sure specifically) and long tube headers. He ran a 13.2 at 104mph on his first pass ever. reason the trap speed was so low is the trans grenaded and threw **** through the floor.

The BMW has sadly been converted for drifting...It used to look so good -_-

Ordering the hot pipes, charge pipes, a/f ratio, and a t3 gasket tomorrow. Still waiting for the turbo and hypergate wastegate to come in the mail.

Here it is finally! Goldiewang's Turbo build thread has been opened, parts are coming in left and right, and the build is set to begin within the week so long as the hot pipes get here soon enough!
