Not a big fan of the log manifold. Especially for that cost :hiding:. It's just like a log manifold on a K series. Chokes the motor and produces excessive heat and high IATs. Look at the manifold that comes with the DOC kit http://docrace.com/products/bmw-335i-n54-n55-single-turbo-kit

:yeahthat: It's a much sturdier and mod friendly engine. I can go with a twin turbo setup, but a single turbo is more efficient. Remember, it's an inline 6cyl engine. It will be able to spool any decently sized turbo relatively quick. Honestly this isn't too far off from the price of a prl...

The ninth is sitting still torn apart haha. I'll put it together whenever I find time. I'm keeping the ninth bone stock and having it as a daily. And the plan is to do a M clone on the BMW and single turbo conversion and make 6-700whp again lol. Stock block and trans though

Thank you. On the 135i pages they call this the "superman"

Well the rpf's sold out of the blue for something I couldn't turn down so my plan changed once more. Pulled the trigger on this bad boy Twin turbo 135i Fully loaded with Msport package Cold weather package BMW Idrive navigation unit Red leather interior -Vmr wheels -Hr springs -Vrsf...

Awesome. I'm going to have to give them a call. On another note this bad boy is ready to go back in. Kinda contemplating on buying cheap h beam rods and Wiseco pistons to drop it and have a "mild build". Probably not though, this is just me talking out of my ***

Just stock block turbo setup. Tossing in oem fuel pump, 1000cc injectors, maybe even a stock clutch and daily driving the car reliably at around 330-350whp. I was tossing the idea of buying another kW kit or a cte kit, but there's no point of selling my kit to buy another kit. I'm also not a big...

5th and 6th gear synchro is toast. Such a shame because I can't buy an oem replacement. I have to buy a whole new gearset or a synchrotec pack. On the search for an oem used one Waiting to see what I can find online so that I can press the Mainshaft bearing back in. The stock gears look so...

Maybe have build #3 with this car..

It's out

I was over 500tq. Made 430 on 22psi with super low timing. On 28-29psi which is what the pull was, I was at or above 500

Unfortunately yes. The next step up transmision wise is a PPG dog box. There's no point of of spending 2-3K dollars on a set of Gear X or MFactory gears again when I'll probably end up breaking them as well at some point. And I don't think I'm fully committed on paying 6K dollars for a dog box...

500tq but MFactory said they haven't had a Honda make that much to really test them. Harry sparks and I are the only people to break these gears The gear was shattered pretty bad. Along with that went my FD and ring gear... Bearings are trashed too. I have decided to part the car out. Don't...

Yes sir. This was my MFactory gearset and I shredded 3rd gear. Pretty disappointing The last pull before it gave out

I bring more bad news. Turned the boost up and since the car has been hookng with these tires and I was doing pulls all night. Had it out In a little under 3 hours

Thanks everyone. As a precaution I put a fire extinguisher in the car. I was able to drop the new cage assembly in tonight. Primed the system and inspected it for leaks and it was good to go. So I'll be driving it tomorrow

Was drivin down the highway and started smelling burning plastic. My girlfriend looks in the rear and says my seats are smoking. I shut the car off and pulled over on the shoulder. Go in the trunk since that's where my battery is and I thought it overheated or blew up. But battery was good. I...

Thanks everyone. Hopefully I'll be able to get it out tomorrow and take some pictures. Ran into a rather large problem earlier in the week that almost caused the car to catch on fire :hiding:

I'm not low to begin with. The pictures may just seem this way, but I have a two finger gap in the rear, and a finger gap in front. Rear I left as is, Front I just bent the tabs in

Dialed in my suspension
