View Full Version : Looking for turbo or super for E30 3-serieslover 03-15-2005, 02:41 PM Hey guys, I have been looking for a turbo or a blower for my E30 325i. So far all the sites I come to only go back to the E36's. If anyone knows of any companies that build kits for the E30's I would really appreciate it. Thanks. gol10dr1 03-15-2005, 05:53 PM www.turbochargingdynamics.com. I have their s1 kit for my 535 and have riden in their s2 325, that sucker moves! 3-serieslover 03-16-2005, 12:39 PM thanks, finally a site that has E30's. You don't happen to know any numbers as far as hp and torque gains do you? grecobeemer 03-16-2005, 01:01 PM BimmerJim is pushing about 300HP/300TQ on a stock bottom end M20. He built the kit himself. I've heard good things about TCD if you want to go that route, but the price is too steep for most. gol10dr1 03-16-2005, 02:30 PM thanks, finally a site that has E30's. You don't happen to know any numbers as far as hp and torque gains do you? i believe the best numbers they made were 293 rwhp and 299 rwtq at 14 psi (?). that thing was pretty quick and it was no where near done when i rode in it. still needs tuning. danpinder 04-01-2005, 01:36 AM Check out www.e30tech.com , most of the turbocharged e30s are on that site... even mine. Cartech Preston 04-01-2005, 05:05 PM There are a couple of places that do kits and some do parts as well if you want to DIY. Hey guys, I have been looking for a turbo or a blower for my E30 325i.

Thanks. pyro 06-27-2005, 01:33 AM Yea, I'm interested in this as well. I looked at TCD and their S1 is $3875, S2 is $5125. This is kind of pricey for me. What I'm looking for is maybe 200-225hp. I'd like to keep the stock motor, gearbox, clutch, diff, etc and have them stay alive. What is the best power I could hope for in such a setup and would $1500-2000 be enough to build it diy? danpinder 06-27-2005, 01:40 AM $2000 will get you 300hp no problem DIY. Ask at e30tech.com pyro 06-27-2005, 01:55 AM Oh thanks :) . The FAQ is answering a lot of my questions: http://www.e30tech.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3318. Schneller Bayer 06-27-2005, 03:29 AM Schneller Motorsports makes a paxton sc kit rated at 240 horswepower, dunno if flywheel or whp (6 psi, so prob flywheel). I've never heard of anyone using their kit, but their site is www.machschnell.com |
