Hi, i'm new on here, just thought i'd add sum pics of my turbo 325 touring,
the car was totally standard earlier in the year when i bought it, the engine came from my old 325 turbo which i broke for parts, now of the road again for an m50 turbo transplant![/img]

I would personally use
www.photobucket.com as it's easier to use, and also you can have your own album to keep your pictures/videos in. You need to make an account though.

she was running just over 300bhp when mapped in the old car and could handle much more, i had the pistons machined down to lower the compression then added a mls headgasket and arp headstuds, helix paddle clutch, 440cc injectors, intercooler and chargecooler and megasquirt,
my new m50 i'm building has je 85mm pistons steel rods, arp main and big end bolts, stress relived bottom end, paddle clutch, mls headgasket and arp headstuds, goig for big power this time!
should get the engine buit up over christmas then just got to get my inlet manifold made and decide on what engine manigment i'm going to use,

whats your idea of big power? have you done anything about getting the power down onto the road rather than spinning your tyres and creating a large smoke cloud whilst waiting for the tyres to catch a grip? a lack off traction has always been my big problem.

it used to be more of a problem in my old e30 which was stripped out and weighed nothing and didnt have very wide wheels, its less of a problem in the touring, slighty heavier over the back wider wheels and lsd means you can get the power down a bit easier, i'm lookin fro between 500 an 600bhp
