Turbo project completed. Since this was a piecemeal project compiling parts off of ebay, I was worried at the outcome. Car dynoed at 260 at rear wheels 297 torque, running at just under 10 pounds of boost. Best part was all the air/fuel looked fine no adjustments were necessary. YEA

did you use a TCD kit? just curious - i'm putting together my order right now with Todd.

Glad it turned out good.

Come on -- give us the stuff we want! What kind of setup are you running??

hook us up with information !

my mechanic fabricated the manifold and some other plumbing, turbo garret t4 .96a/r .60 a/r, 30 lb injectors from Todd, thanks for your help Todd, rvm blow off valve 34mm, delta wastegate, bell engineering adjustable fuel pressure regulator, 3"downpipe, 3" all the way back ,flowmaster exhaust and center resonator it was too loud with out the center. Been grinning all day. Thanks to Lopy my mechanic who made all this work

I dont know why the info at left shows a 528e auto, my car is an 88 535is

It's your "rank" for the forum -- it changes the more you post.

Got any pics of the setup//turbo?

aren't the hp numbers a little low? at only about 5-6 psi, i made 255 rwhp with no tuning and about 270 lbs tourque. just wondering?

no, I think the numbers are about right. Its supposed to be about 10 hp per pound of boost. a stock 88 535is is what about 150 rwhp so thats about right

at the crank it was around 312 according to the dyno guy

Andrew don't forget you have the M30B35 engine with the 9:1 compression and higher flowing head. You have a slight advantage over us.... except we can run much more boost than you in the end

good call tj, but he made a lot more tourque then me, by about 20 lbs. where does that come from.

That can be dyno differneces(to a point). But, the b34 engine is specifically tuned for more low end torque, and sacrafices top end power. The b35 is tuned to sacrafice some low end torque for a little more high end power. The b35's cam has more duration in the cam,(slight), but that gives away some of the torque. Look at Todds dyno run with a b32 engine(272 cam, 3.2l), its torque output is alot lower than the b34 and b35, but the top end power is significantly higher, 333whp wiht only 316lb-ft. My b34 with ~ the same boost made 375lb-ft.
