Me too! Something about the E36 vert with hardtop. Got a sporty look too it.

Not sure how its going to look with overfenders though. Should look pretty good I think. Gotta cover the fender damage (from previous PO) that's was bondo'd over. Discovered it when I was stripping the car the bare metal..

Yeah it's been complete for over a month been waiting to officially drive it due to body work.

Hopefully this weekend I'll drive her. Fingers crossed

Sweet!
How many pounds of boost are you planning to start off with and then reach to?

7psi currently on basemap. Dont know if ill increase it anytime soon. Longevity is more important to me

I don't recall, did you run the cut ring spacer, did you run E85

I started at seven now I'm at 12 and debating on going to 16, LOL
Now I know why they call it a waste gate, every time I waste gate opens I hear all the wasted boost, LOL

Yeah I have cut ring HG/spacer. 93 octane and meth injection evntually

Once I get a spare motor I'll start turning it up

[Thompson501]

Sounds good!

[328iFun]

Got to do a few pulls today... Totally worth the money and work

[328iFun]

Hey everyone,

BOV isn't opening. Came with 2 springs one that was extremely light the other is very heavy.

Light one stayed open at idle.

I had a big boost leak from my boot where my meth injector got blown out from boost, with that leak I could hear the valve opening.

Now with no leak it doesnt open?

Here's the vavle:

What do you think

[someguy2800]

Rev it up to 4-5k in neutral and shut the throttle and see if it opens visually from under the hood

[Thompson501]

Congrats!!!
sounds good

Appreciate it Thompson but mine is a vband. I'm going to cut the spring and see if it helps any

Why would open with a boost leak though?
