E36 twinscroll pics brother? I just ordered my setup from ar design. What size wastegates do u have on ur setup?
Stash car +20
well the head I got off that M52 has worn out intake valve guides (wtf? not exhaust?) so getting all new guides, seals, etc.
Also ordered supertech dual valve springs and Ti retainers from work, should be here Monday.
/update

I'm sure dual 38s is plenty, but I'll test it at 9psi on the wastegate as soon as it's back together and let you know how it holds boost. Going to oklahoma this weekend and have to wait for a few parts so hopefully going back together the following weekend.

oh did you miss the 26psi spool log?
TRM has a badass datalogger for OBD2 that can log lots of ECU parameters, so remote tuning is dramatically improved. Ignition advance logging, knock logging, etc. OBD1 can't really do any of that.
Also bought my dad a new fuel system and TRM OBD2 60# tune with logger setup, so his TTS2 M3 is about to be a TRM S2, and probably another 100 hp.
We're going to fly Mike to Texas later this year for dyno tuning on all our TRM cars (we will have 4 TRM turbo cars after this weekend.. my brother's should be done.) I want an 80# Q16 30psi tune to screw around with. Drifting/tracking will stay at 10-15psi for reliability.

oh very cool. also, eff you and your cool toys. I just put harry's laptimer pro on my iphone to record video and I thought I was cool. You can go frig yourself, bud.
wow. its very cool if you have this kind of info if you know what to do with it.
so you only went a little after 4k on this shot? did you make any other runs at higher rpms? looks llike she had more in her.
looks too be running fat and rich which makes sense because the exhaust temps are pretty high.... probably higher then i would be comfortable with
but good for you mike! hope you have a bigger grin then shammo when your driving this thing
Current pics of turbo setup?
11.15 AFR is right where I'd like it for this much boost. EGT isn't hooked up, so 2300+F is not accurate. I'd say it's more like 1300-1500 F, but won't know for sure until it's hooked up.
Still waiting on the head from the machine shop... and now the OBD2 +80# + logging goodies from TRM. Praying it'll be running in some form or another soon, if the machine shop has me the head back soonish. (hopefully next week.)
