Swaps, Turbos, Buildups / BMW E36 Built E85 M42 SC14 Supercharger Hydemotorworks Kit Build Log
« on: April 01, 2024, 04:52:41 PM »
Hello everyone!
I have a 1994 BMW E36 318is coupe manual M42 with the Mtechnic package (1 of 79 here in Australia) and have been going through the process of supercharging with the Hyde Motor Works MOAB kit and wanted to share my process and eventually my results!
I post regularly and go live on TikTok assembling bits and pieces on there. @Superchargede36

Firstly, what you are probably quite interested in, specs!
Engine (was built by JHH Racing in Australia):
CP-Carrillo Pistons 84mm Low comp
CP-Carrillo Connecting rods
Stock M42 Crank
MLS Gasket (Not sure on thickness)
ARP everything
Performance Bearings
Compression ratio 8.5:1
Serviced head but stock
M44 intake manifold
RHD SMF
Heavy Duty M20 Clutch rated for 360ft/lbs
Flex Fuel system:
255lph Walbro pump
1:1 Fuel Pressure Regulator
980cc Bosch Injectors
all rubbers swapped for flex fuel
(In the process of doing this^^^)
Supercharger:
Type 2 SC14
80mm Hyde Motor Works pulley
Medium sized intercooler
should push about 10-12psi after the intercooler loss
Other misc about the car:
E46 Purple tag steering rack
BC Racing BR Coilovers
M3 x brace
Reinforcement plates front and rear shocks
Strut Tower strut bar
E46 330ci front brakes
E46 330ci Front slotted rotors
Stock 318is rear brakes
E36 Slotted rear rotors
Brembo Pads
Short throw shifter
Small case diff which I will be swapping to medium case
I am keeping the Getrag 220 for now and will be upgrading to ZF later this year when the bank account allows me to lol. It should be fine.
Baffled Catch can (to be installed)
Other than that the process has been mostly straight forward considering I was assembling the engine bay from scratch (Pics are attached). For this installation converting to the m44 manifold is preferred and converting to the m44 mebelt tensioner is also recommended. So if you have a M44 it will be a easier install. Otherwise it's just a matter of stacking pulleys ontop of one another. I have deleted the charcoal canister, and will delete the throttle body heater plate.
The Supercharger is belt driven via a pulley on top of the steering pump, with a added pulley on top of the existing one on the tensioner and then a final idle pulley mounted on the bracket near the strut tower side. The bracket mounts via the two alternator bolt holes and goes on top very snugly. All of this is demonstrated on my TikTok or the HydeMotorWorks Guide on YouTube.
Within the next few days I will have the belts and pulleys all done and should have the charger mounted properly. I will then move onto my fuel system to install the pump, regulator and injectors.
I will keep you updated!
