 Is that the same on the e 30 and the e36?

We installed the inlet farther back in the block in order to allow the oil to cool against the pan as it ran down to the sump.  It was also above the sump level.

That makes sense, do u also run a oil cooler or use that technique instead? Also where did u choose to get the oil feed line from?

Nothing should be different on a car that uses an AFM/MAF over a MAP sensor as the FMU is not electronic. The FMU references manifold pressure/vacuum only which is independant of airflow metering device.

Not sure what ratio is best to use. I know many years ago the BEGI unit was the one to use.

Keep in mind you also need a chip to reduce the timing.

What chip would u have in mind? Have not uncovered a chip to retard the timing in all my research for a turbo application ?
