8:1 of what means? explain pls..

so yer still running on your stock fuel pump and OEM ECU? thats pretty cool. can we get a pic of the oil feed hookup on the back of the head in the car? any reason why you chose to run an oil/water cooled turbo instead of a straight oil cooled? thanks for the info, im about to turbo my 318is soon, gonna try to use the OBX m42 manifold/downpipe with external dump wastegate.

also how are you guys adjusting the timing on m42?

Thanks guys, Heres a list and a total.

EASY STUFF...
TE05-12b turbo (91 saab)------Free \
22lb injectors (91 saab)--------Free = Traded a junk car
Bypass Valve (91 saab)--------Free /
M50 ebay manifold------------100.00
27x7x2.5 Intercooler-----------80.00
Ebay IC 2.5" 2mm thick Pipinp--80.00
PLX Devices DM-200 + AFR----500.00
Colder Thermo + Gasket--------45.00
Colder Plugs Bosch F6DTC------20.00
Hoses, Clamps and Tee's------100.00
Oil and Coolant----------------40.00
Braided oil feed line------------40.00
Various AN fittings-------------60.00
Various steel pieces------------Free scrap from local welding shops
Various couplers---------------40.00 elbows, reducers,

Harder Stuff.... only because
Welded M50 manifold-----------220.00 Because its stainless
Welded Barb to Oil pan----------80.00 Because its aluminum
Cutting disc's and drill bits-------60.00 Because you'll just need them
Various Hardware pieces---------30.00 Because its metric
Down pipe from danny-----------80.00 Because I got lazy

I think that's it. So the total is 1,575.00. Im sure I could have saved more but once I got going, I was swiping my card left and right.

I do have a vid of a cold start up. I cant get any other vids until i figure how to mount a camera inside or find a friend with a steady hand.

As for a dyno... Im waiting for norcale30.com to figure out a date for a dyno day. Looks like with in a month or so.

Here is a pic of the back of a spare block. There is a bolt (removed) on the back of the block that plugs a possible oil feed line. I removed the bolt and took it to a local hose a fitting guy and told him what I wanted.

I am still running on stock ecu and fuel pump with no problems. Timing is also stock. Thats why I can't exceed 8psi.

8psi is fun too. LOL and I'll bet yours handles load changes better than my MS1. Stupid no ICV.

I wouldn't run around too long on a rrfpr . I have seen alot of thing's go wrong including fires

100psi at the rail is too much load for the stock fuel lines

Wouldn't that be the stock fuel hoses? The metal lines should handle that right? Is there any way to improve the hoses going from the metal lines to the rail?

The metal lines are of course plenty strong. 1. inside the tank there is a rubber short hose that can split and give you a pressure loss in boost but car still seems to idle and drive fine and then you will pop the motor. 2. between the tank and the steel lines are badly worn out and rubber is cracking . 3. between the fuel rail and the steel lines will develop a fine mist leak witch will fill the engine bay with vapors and eventually explode when the vapors hit the hot manifold. 4. the injectors can pop out of the rail even with the clips in place (fuel can get past the orings)

NICE! Obviously not what we want happening... So what is the "correct" solution, so to speak?

bmwconnect · « **Reply #102 on:** June 17, 2010, 04:16:37 PM »

Bigger injectors with a tune that flow a good amount at 50psi , and Motronic chip tuned or another standalone system is the correct solution

nice build! looking forward to see some #'s!

So 30lb injectors and a war chip would put me on the right path? I want to play with a war chip anyway, so that's already on the list. Is there no fuel line solution that would safely handle increased pressure? I like to go overkill whenever possible.
