Because the turbo is the only thing that has to do with horsepower right?

I didn't know that, you learn something new everyday I guess.

And I'm telling you you'll have more than 200hp at 11 psi.


What turbo and psi are you running? It sounds like you have more than 200HP.

I know bearsbmw is running an ebay turbo at 7 lbs and he has ~180whp.

I have yet to dyno mine.

There is more to making power than the size of the turbo.

It is the only thing that produces extra horsepower when you slap it on a stock engine. Did you adjust the stock cam gears to get more out of a higher redline or anything?

Im talking about just upgrading to a turbo and tuning it, not cams or anything, just enough supporting mods for the turbo, a bigger turbo will make more power at the same psi of a smaller turbo. All I was pointing out is that the turbo Im using is relatively small compared to a 50 trim.

Dude get the fuck out with that kind of crap. Don't ask for advice if you are going to be a little bitch about the answer.

For starters, its bullshit you are gonna chime in with this garbage, when I couldnt even get several simple questions fucking answered after several attempts. I wasnt trying to argue with Danny at all, just get some easy answers he should know if hes turboed, or if he is gonna give me advice without proof of the statement he made.
Read the whole thread or GTFO. I never got an answer to be a little bitch about, he told me to just slap my turbo on it and be happy, so why are you all up in my shit when all I did is repeat what he said back?
All I asked was the simple question of how he figures I would make over 200HP @ 11psi on the turbo Im using, after he kept telling me I would with no explanation. It seems like he didnt know what I was asking, or what he was talking about, or what turbo I have, so he got fed up and told me to forget it, insinuating that I am an idiot.
All I needed was a simple answer of what turbo he dealt with that made that power, I didnt get an answer of what turbo he had, but he told me someone else has an "ebay turbo" at 7psi making 180HP, which doesnt tell me shit about the turbo. This is not how I wanted the thread to go at all, but if you would have followed the thread you could see where Im coming from and where the frustration built.

$150 is the core for the computer, and if you actually read the link the ecu is designed to get rid of the stock MAF, not use it.


thanks, i'm italian so i have some difficulty with technical arguments... (just for language not for doing)

Alright, its probably a 50trim. Gas pump monster, 50 trim will make 400HP on 93 at 25-30psi. Is your lag bad? Nasty porting can help out there though. Ill have to get pics of my setup.
The main reason I am going with the 14b mitsu is because it is a 100K turbo that is proven reliable. Being oil and water cooled gives it good insurance too, no need for a TT. Im going to use the feed and return from the TB heater that I disconnected. Its just gonna be a little tricky doing the downpipe. The 14B has an internal gate so I have to run the DSM O2 manifold on it and then connect to a downpipe.
The only header I see out there some what reasonably priced is the OBX that is all over ebay, and Ive had N/A OBX manifolds on nissan KA's that have cracked on the welds. It anybody fabbing up any DP's that anybody knows of? Id love to find a ebay no name for $150 like every other car has.

OBX is the way to go on the E36.

Not sure if the modified M50 manifold would work for you because it makes it top-mount.

Ah, shit. I figured there was a difference between the e30 and e36 somewhere. I would think my car would have a little more room but I guess thats not the story. Is yours top mounted? Do you have any engine pics Danny?
