Project Evil e30: I've lost my mind. Updated 3-28
As you know the turbo took a crap for the second time so I was in the market for a much bigger turbo (.60/.63) and a MegaSquirt system. That would have put me at around 220-240 hp at 15psi. From a 1.8 liter 4cyl, not to bad.
Well, about 3 seconds before I was going to buy a new turbo I just happened to see an add online a bmw website. A guy here in FL was selling a 3.5 liter m30 motor w/ 5 spd trans. I inquired and long story short I'll be picking it up next weekend!!!!
So the new plan is drop the 3.5 into my e30 and throw a Holset HX45w on there with MegaSquirt controling the whole shabang. The NA 3.5 liter puts out around 218 hp with 8:1 compression. The 8:1 compression makes it PERFECT for turbo application. My new hp goal will be around 350hp.
2200 lb car + 350 hp = complete BMW insanity!!MUWAAAAAH HAHAHA
