Rotten euro E28, 2015 turbo update

[TotiTurbo]

Still hanging in there

[TotiTurbo]

So instead of driving this thing to the junkyard where it belongs I decided to turbocharge it
I sold the old M30B35 I had been running since 2012 and put in another low mileage (100k miles) M30B35 I had laying around

4th M30 in this junker and 3rd M30B35

ARP Headstuds
~890cc @3bar Siemens deka injectors
BorgWarner KKK K27.2 from a Mercedes OM906 6.4l truck engine
50mm wastegate
50mm blow off
A/A 4" thick intercooler that is waaay too large
Homemade turbo adapter

I dropped the engine in last week and have it up and running but have yet to drive it






Chassis flex is expected

Simply amazing work.

I like the new direction it's heading in! Zero fucks given and just have fun, instead of junking it.

It must sound sick with that "exhaust"

[TotiTurbo]

Simply amazing work.

Thanks, I tried my worst

I like the zero fucks given attitude. For all those naysayers: you did say you had another body on standby so that makes it OK
Do I spy some Audi leather seats? I've had a few Audis.
Are you in Island? My fam is from there

Yeah, I have another body that is in a much better shape than this one, but still needs some rust repair, the rust on this one was terminal when I got it
The seats are from a Mitsubishi Starion (Chrysler Conquest)

And yep I'm in Iceland

Apparantly I made a flamethrower

Holy crap! I also have a rusty euro shelled E28 (Opal Grun but rusty '83 528i) with Starion seats in it!!

How could this be?

Is there any weight saving when you removed the paint?

Seriously, that's a pretty cool Rat E28. I like the flamethrower. That would freak out the person driving next to you at night.

Lol. According to Top Gear (R.I.P.) a '60s Mercedes SL has 40 pounds (!!!) of paint on it...

Woah. Love that flame thrower.
