It's under the knife!!.....I EXCITE!

Finally felt good enough this evening to tear into the M3. Its been sitting on Adam's lift all week without oil and the mid pipe removed in prep for this.

I tore into it, this is all new territory for me on an e36 and I'm loving it :redspot.


Front bumper is off







new Fujita air filter


time to clean its teeth...yuck bugs everywhere



Hello



2 quick interior shots.....needs some conditioner on the vinyl, been sitting w/ the windows open baking in his garage during the day





The M3's stabelmate for the few weeks it will be under the knife, Adam's beautiful M5. Its going up on the lift Saturday to get a new clutch :redspot.





Intercooler is off



Skipping WAY ahead the downpipe and wastegate are already off, turbo has been unbolted, coolant drained and the turbo is FREEEEEE to go to anther car



BUT holy crap, I had no idea this was going on



I'm guessing the turbo was like this since I've owned it. The car has only run better and better since I've got it since i'm giving seriously needed maintenance and love. Sooooo i'm actually really pumped since I cant wait to feel the difference of a well running gt35r!!!! If this little guy w/ these shredded ass blades was running as fast and smooth as it was, god I cant wait for 35r and meth w a custome tune.

I EXCITE

the 60-1 will receive a new compressor wheel and is going to be sold along with a lot of other turbo parts. I already have a buyer lined up guys so no need to PM me.

In comparison

gt35r .82 vs the TT stg II 60-1 turbo



Back down for a few more things under the hood like removing all intake piping



obviously havent touched it yet. I'm going to take this oppurtunity to clean up the wiring in the engine bay. Hide the HID ballasts, etc.



Cleaned up for the evening and will be back for more tomorrow







MORE TO COME!!!

500whp+........

on 93 plus meth I dont think 500whp is a problem at all on moderate boost levels. NickG tuned that smaller turbo I had on with meth to 485whp at 18psi.
the 35r flows tons more air than the 60-1 and will support 650hp or so.

stock internals are good for 600whp or just a little over. The rods seem to be failing around 650whp.
