    It's hard for me to believe you could find room to put one anywhere in an e36 without cutting out the wheel well.

    - - - Updated - - -

    There is no way you would fit an S400 on an E36. Here is david trans car with a gt45, which is the same physical size. He had the wheel well cut out and the compressor housing stuck through the hood.

    It has a 1.10 T4 housing with an 87/81 mm turbine. I am going to get a .9 housing as well and will see which one it likes best. Based on the trap speeds I did in my car I think you could probably squeeze some more out of the S366. Mine was still making big gains in trap speed when I would increase the boost so I don't think it was done yet on my combo. It trapped 148-149 at 28 psi. I was still picking up alot of power at 32 psi for me but never made a pass with it. bke36is went 150 on his with a power glide and a billet wheel and I would sure think his car is heavier than yours.

    I would love to but can barely afford one car. If I get another it will be a tube chassis car.

    Modaddict has 2 600+ turbo e36's. One is being built all drag, C4 auto etc etc. The other is a pristine 4 door. Low miles factory everything with a 4094. Drives like a caddy. I think he might be doing the right thing. One race car, one awesomely comfortable 600hp highway monster.

    That would be nice. I want to get mine to be a reliable 8 second street car, then I want to do a 7 second tube chassis car, and eventually a 9 second 70's chevy C10 pickup. 10 year plan

    My plan once I get out of school. Turn my current car into a stupidly impractical race car and have a minty fresh 500whp e36.

    I will build another 500-600whp car, it will he 2jZgte powered, the harder part is deciding what chassis it'll be in.

    For a tube chassis car I would like to do an E21 with a turbo LS and a lenco

    Perry my bad, I have the SX300 60mm inducer .91 divided turbine.
    I made the manifold for David's GT45, the turbine housing was a monster..!!!

    I put a set of stock bore wiseco pistons in it this spring but before that I ran the same boost on stock m52 pistons with regapped junkyard rings. Besides the pistons everything came from the junkyard with 180k miles. It still has stock non vanos m50 rods. The bearings and chains were the best ones from two motors. Stock valve train with locked s52 cams. Never had a valve job. $35 victor reinz head gasket with no orings.

    You know, my main hero is the Sloppy Mechanic Matt Happel, but with posts like this you are actually right up there with him... I have to think about it, maybe you are even more heroic than he is! Lol

    How fast did you run on the M52 pistons?

    Otis is even more stock than me. I never got a pass on it with stock pistons with the boost turned up except just timing it with gps on the highway. I trapped 144 I think on my speedhut gps or something. One of the things I want to do sometime is get another stock junkyard bottom end and put head studs in it and gap the rings and see how fast I can get it to go. I don't know if there is a stock bottom end BMW record. Otis might have it.

    I was telling Perry about him a while back. I'm like this dude is you with a 5.3, doing things the internet experts say is unpossible - guys bragging about spending tens of thousands on this and that, being broken down all the time while he mops up at the track with a junkyard-stock 5.3

    Lol. Juggs sent me a link to a podcast that guy did, I think we would get along. Its really funny to listen to some people talk about how much money has to be spent to make X amount of power and you need this and that and this has to be just so or it won't make power and that needs to be this way or it won't last and you need a sheet metal fabricated doohickey and your widget needs to be billet sodium filled ceramic coated cryogenic treated titanium and the guy you need to do it for you only charges $30,000 and only makes you wait 3 years to put your junk together, and blah blah blah blah blah......

    meanwhile in the real world I'm gonna drive around you with a slant 6 I screwed together in a shed with a tractor turbo on it

    Haha, yep! I guess it really just comes down to what you enjoy.

    BTW, Otis is definitely one of my heroes too.
