Post by: jscribble on June 17, 2010, 09:05:57 PM: Wow, this is looking great, manchuk! I like the attn to detail on the motor, brackets and covers. Looking really sharp! Is that intake boot oem & red tape? Where did you pick up the head studs?
Title: manchuk
Post by: manchuk on June 18, 2010, 12:13:19 PM: i got the head studs from top end performance along with the .120 head gaskets from cometics
and it is self fuseing silicon wrap on the intake boot, it makes a solid layer of silicone once it overlaps it self
Title: manchuk
Post by: jscribble on June 18, 2010, 08:05:23 PM: I like the wrap. Keep the pics coming!

Title: manchuk
Post by: manchuk on June 22, 2010, 11:08:18 AM: yah its the exact same stuff as rescue tape the more layers u put on the thicker it gets , i actulaly screwed one piece ip and had to cut it off, and when i did it actually fused together so good it was solid silicone and couldnt be pulled off. ,,,,,,, dont buy rescue tape brand. look on ebay for self fusing silicone and people have it on there cheaper and in different widths as well but it is still expensive, but it does an amazeing job (900psi)
i even fixed a small hole in my pressure washer line

Post by: 1991 E30 M42 on June 22, 2010, 07:18:31 PM: Everything looks great except for your cam gears which look pretty worn. Keep up the good work and keep posting pictures.
Title: manchuk
Post by: manchuk on June 23, 2010, 07:43:23 AM: yah in that pictures they do look a little worn, but they are not, its actually becuase i started cleaning them around the edges and then thought they are just going to be covered in oil again, so when i took the picture the flash reflected off the teeth becuase they were shiney

Good decision.

p.s. "mess under the intake delete" that way IMHO is better, better head cooling, X-flow....

Title: manchuk
Post by: manchuk on October 13, 2010, 03:19:17 PM: -ordered m50 manifold to cut last to cylinders off ,it seems very logical for the price.$115
-garrett airesearch t3 .42/.48 AR , i know its a little small but for 12psi and $150 i cant go wrong
-oil feed kit $40 (with psi reducer)
-oil drain parts $40 (fuck oil pan taps are expensive)

sold my supercharger for 450
so i bought all this and have a little bit left for trouble shooting
Title: manchuk
Post by: manchuk on October 13, 2010, 03:22:38 PM: thanks for the input romkasponka, i was actually going to use those 2 points for water cooling the turbo i was looking at but, after getting the deal that i did on the turbo without water cooling im going to switch it over to the x-flow set up

but anyways here it is
Title: manchuk
Post by: manchuk on November 07, 2010, 04:40:17 PM: no im not running a independant management!!!!!!!!!!!!!
bears bmw, bmw connect, midnight tuneing is going to hook me up with a custom ecu (#175) chip to get me running on #42 injectors to drive the car down to ottawa and then custom tune for 15psi from there , apparently that mother fucker knows his shit so he has advised me when im ready we will doo it , check out his vids on you tube

Post by: manchuk on June 18, 2011, 11:01:19 PM: hey guys got my self into some trouble went too jail for 8 months and havnt had a chance to work on my bitch anyways im out now and will update the build hopefully

Title: manchuk
Post by: manchuk on June 22, 2011, 11:49:08 AM: it seems like a not so expensive build but i completly rebuilt the hole moter plus i added vac tefcoat bearing all around arp head studs and lowered the compression and used deves rings so its a little more than just makeing a junkyard turbo kit
yes i used a used turbo and did some fabricateing myself but i made the moter strong enough to jam 20psi down its throat if i want to in the future but for now ill stay at the 12psi that this turbo can handle so no it is not completly inexpensive becuase i prepared the moter for future hp
Title: manchuk
Post by: manchuk on August 07, 2011, 09:36:46 PM: hey guys havnt done much too her still but noticed the turbo was leaking a bit of oil so i completly rebuilt it and changed the main intake boot ill post some pics shortly
