Intro - newbie
Hey everyone. Have browsed here before but never done anything more than that.
I am Matt H at Rennlist for those that do both boards. Have loads of cars but the ones I claim are a 95 BMW 540 and an 87 951. P-car is mostly put back together after a somewhat restoration project. Too many mods to list and I have forgotten most of them ![]() |

perfecto - car has not been dynoed yet, it should make that much HP and if it doesnt we will keep working until it does.
T04E 72 lb/hr injectors Huntley Stg 3/4 MAF PLX WB02 HKS EGT/Boost guages SFR exhaust Pauer Tuning fuel lines TiAL WG Stratmosphere DV APEXi AVC-R 18PSI (though might end up going to 21 or 25 just going to have to see) External Oil Cooler yadda, yadda, yadda. Still some other stuff to order. More stuff I am sure I have forgotten.

Welcome Matt H....
I am AlexE over on rennlist........... pelican is my first home. You will find it quite entertaining on Pelican. Not as many in depth turbo discussions here but a lot of good times! My car is a work in progress as well.... Vitesse Stage2 (T04e), AVC-R, SFR 3inch exhaust, 38 Tial, Lindsey Wide Band...etc... Hope to hit similar numbers even if I have to crank the boost till something blows.. heheheh

Matt's not really a newbee. He has over 4,000 posts on RennList.
So you all be sure to ask Matt those tough technical questions because he's very knowledgeable. ![]()

Hey SoCal, dont get their hopes up! You getting back at me for saying I dont always agree with you? :>)
I am fairly technically oriented but by no means in the same league as TonyG or Danno(I think he is DannXYZ here) or some of the others. SoCal is right I am not really a newbie per se. But new to this forum.

Mostly agree on car stuff.
You can change the line below your user name in the profile section. Can't put a large avatar there like Rennlist though.

Yeah, I was registered here for awhile before I went over there. When I saw there was a similar name, I had to totally change it.
Sidney's been living up to the Vicious too. She's had a real bad attitude lately. I think your's should have been "400HP951". After all, we need to set a lofty goal, right?

Thanks TCM.
Brian - the goal is 400 and it will make that much, just wont be very streetable. My license plates are going to read 400+ HP. If I end of moving that would be better as there is only a 5 dollar charge for the vanity plates! I think I am going to trade the K26 for something, just waiting on a reply!

Welcome 350HP951, you can never have too many turbo lovers around!!!
![]() 350 rwhp sounds like a good number....I am hoping to hit about the same with mine.
