My e30 turbo.

[Karel]

Hey. just wanted to share some small clips of my e30 turbo..

just started it 2 weeks ago. all that needs to be done now is.. complete the exhaust system (im only running with a downpipe now) and build the wastegate pipes.







enjoy

[Bailey]

that sounds fecking awsome buddy. hats off

[aceraf]

Turbo e30's are soooo

[Karel]

thanks guys

[S38B38]

WOW what a turbo

[zimm_zimmer]

wow what do you have to do to get the e30 into a turbo, what is involved in it and do you need to strengthen anything, sounds and even looks awsome .

[Bailey]

i've decided, i think we should swap cars.... let me know wont ya!!

[fuzzy]

thats a fancy looking turbo whats the spec and expected power figures? aceraf is right. turbos are soooo especially in a car thats not meant to have one causing confusion for the people that hear the hiss from the dumpvalve as it passes

[Demlotcrew]

again that famous funny laugh at the end of the third vid has to be malcolm.

[Loozen_it]

well it depends on how much power you want to get out.. but to build an "sneak" as we call them here i sweden doesent take much.. just build an manifold and the little bigger injectors and a intercooler.. then you can easiley boost it with 0.5bar (7.5psi) and get around 250hp (on a m20b25)

hehe sure.. i live in sweden stop by some time

thanks... the turbo is from a volvo truck its good for 750hp
i run a stock bottom so i will be happy if i get around 480whp "this year" next year i will get forged pistons and rods and up the boost a little bit and hopefully get around 550-600 in the wheels

Very nice set up!

the turbo is speciefied for 750hp... but im not sure of the size of the inlet and outlet.. but ofcourse i can mesure it..

HEy guys.. iv been busy in the garage all week. but i will present some new wids soon.

We made the car more "street legal" so no the hood is on.. and we did build an exhaust system as well..

and the seat belt are in place as well..

[Karel]

Soo.. now iv even tryied the biimer on the stripp

best time was.

(this is with only 1bar of boost.. the plans are to use at leas 1.5)
11.5sek and 198,8kmh
with lame 60-fot time.. 1.8xx

[maxfield]

Now that's quick...

[oakey]

is tha a 1/4mile in 11.5 seconds at 198kmh? Thats fekkin quick I'd love a go in that!

yeep thats a 1/4 mile

my friend filmed it.. so when the movie is done i will put it here

[Karel]

the antilag function stopped working so i hade zero boost in the start..

but i guess if i use the antilag and little more boost. (1.5)bar i could run a 10sek..

that is atlest the goal for this year

[Karel]

here you guys have something to watch

im not sure if a have the fastest run on tape. but here is the one when i broke 2 rockerarms.. 2 to 3 gear..

save as:

hey of course.. i defenetlly think that you should put a turbo on that cab,
(edit. what engine do you run?)

it all depends on what kind a turbo setup you want... the setup that we call sneak here in sweden is a really basic one.. just build an collektor for the turbo and use an m535 airflowmeter (or as we call it LMM) and a little bit bigger injectors. put a intercooler on and you are almost ready to go..

the setup im using is a little bit more advanced. i have lower compression. and "o-ringed" engine block not sure is called the same in english but its a steal thread that you put around the cylinder "holes"

like this


siemens deka injectors. 680cc
kkk29-turbo
all the engine parts are balanced and weight tested
custom made exhaust manifold
tial 38mm wg -- x2
50mm tial bov
badass intercooler
original intake manifold
arp head studs.
the head i pretty original (plans are to change the rockerarms,harder springs,titanium retainers, and race valves, and the fully port it)
with this setup i can rev it to 9500rpm

e34 525 gearbox
4-p sinter
sasch 618 pressure plate

all the interior is removed,
custom made fuelcell
bosch 044 fuel pump
10mm inlet fuel lines.

i guess that there is a lot of stuff that i forgott to write.

heres the engine.

Impressed fella. Keep it up..

sounds and looks amazing!!

thanks guys

What is the total cost of this conversion? awesome car by the way

[stormhunt3r]

is this a DIY project?

I was quoted for the bolt on here in malaysia for RM6,000 approx 900 pound..

but if it can be DIY, no harm trying i guess..

well done to ur e30..

cheers
