Opel ascona rearwing
It's just wrong to put an Opel Rear wing on a BMW Especially since it doesn't fit.

I absolutely love it... but why did you modify the intake manifold?
(Not questioning judgement, but want to learn).

i mod the intake because chamber is too small in stock condition, and it stabilize the air flow.
this engine will give 300bhp-> and 600nm->
and... its big fun to do something your self

Are you going to run all stock other than turbo and intercooler? What are your IP mods, any internal mods? I am working on building my 5 speed to about 200hp and wasnt sure what these engines can handle....

Wow. Love the manifold. I was thinking of doing the exact same thing whenever I find a td to call my own. Larger plenum with inlet tube relocated for ease of intercooler installation.
I am really curious as to why you left a significant portion of the stock manifold in place inside of your larger plenum. Looks like that would reduce the effectiveness of the plenum some with that large lip in there.
Looking forward to following this project...

the KP of the piston in m21d25 engine.(original, not modified)
there is some pressure. imaginate, in diesel engine cylhead is flat.
those small points are the combustion chamber.
