This happened at the dragstrip last year:

So I bought a GT3582R .82:

And I put it in my car:

I have to retune for the new fuel injectors and bigger turbo so I dont know what it'll do yet. I got on it a briefly coming home from the gas station and it moves pretty good. I think I'll hold off on swapping engines for a little while.

Glad to see it running! Now tear some shit up!

 

[Klutch]

Oh hell yes!!

 

[Sideswipe]

Uh oh....

 

[pullinboost]

Looks good !!

 

[TRMIN8R]

Nice

 

[01ws6]

This car is a total sleeper!

 

[SINISTER]

How much power are you shooting for with that turbo on the current motor?

 

[Sideswipe]

11tybillion and a half I would think.

 

[locowill]

M/// POWER ALL THE WAY

 

[Sideswipe]

Will.

You're doing it wrong.

lol.

 

[LittleMT]

nice...


that Turbo is capable of some very nice power....

 

[turbodan]

It should do no less than 400rwhp uncorrected. It feels strong but I cant rev it out until I add another wastegate to the manifold. It holds about 8 psi until around 5800, but if I go to 6500 it spools itself up to about 21, so I set the fuel cut at 6k. When I get the boost under control I'll be turning it up and running it to 7k. I think another Tial 38mm will do the trick.

the head gasket went on the last sunday at the strip right ? coolant everywhere , u using copper spray sealer on the new head gasket, nice set up, i love bimmers especially ones that are forced induction ///mpower all the way

 

[turbodan]

Yeah, that was it. I didn't copper spray this one. I think the next step is o-ringing the block, but I shouldn't even need to do that if I can keep the motor from detonating.
