Few more things done.

DEKA 60# injectors are now installed along with a good starter tune from "Kamotors" the car started right up but was very lean so I will have to tune tune it from scratch basically my engine has a lot more airflow because of the supercharger. I got the car to idle at around 13.9-14.5AFR at 1350RPM so far.

I also finished the day with my ARP headbolt studs to 60# torque...tomorrow I will bring the engine to temp and let her cool down a bit and  retorque final to 65-70# torque.

Getting very excited to start driving her... road insurance starts on may 1st :)

The birth of the First twincharged BMW M20

Without further ado.... I present to you the birth of the First twincharged BMW M20

Here are a couple of pics (Its prototype mode right now :) engine bay will be cleaned up and all the pipes will be removed sanded and painted.

 Wiring needs to be tucked away...

 Is valence needs to be installed...

here is a quick startup video...overall am very happy all seems well... except for 2 issues.

http://youtu.be/s6Db_V399Vo

1. the turbo is smoking a bit..either its the oil residu from factory since its brand new burning off which I think it is as no blue smoke is coming out of the exhaust and oil consumption is normal.

2. couple of oil drips on the floor coming from oil sandwich adapter , will check it tomorrow.

In the video it sounds very loud as its in a small garage but the exhaust sounds amazing wow I was really impressed.

there you have it ...I promised a Twincharged E30 and I delived :)

Next is 60# injectors and ARP studs.

Stay tuned I will do a video explaining the whole setup and some exhaust clips outside too...

I have seen quite a few video's of E30 made by fanatics and this one I have to admit is really amazing!

don't know if this person is in the R3V forum or not but Kudos to you.

Ok time to go finish my build...

..and a little closer we get....

 Turbo output pipe is done you can see how tight things are but I still manage to keep the EPS :)

You can the pipe that crosses over to the other end its very solid and vibration free and not lower the the cooler.

 On the other side the turbo output pipe will go threw the throttle body that then leads to the input of the Supercharger...then out the supercharger--> in the front intercooler and out to the engine. Supercharger is now installed with a proper coupler and t-bolt to handle boost in the input (before it only saw vaccum)

I took a break and installed half the exhaust which fits very very nicely for a 3" exhaust. Loving the CXRACING stuff so far everything fits very well. Am getting really close to the first startup....stay tuned!

 Turbo side is done....finished the oil return. This will spark controversy but I read about it and a lot have done it successfully. I made my own half barbed / oil pan bolt...forgot to take a pic of it. Its very secure, very tight. The 3/4 inch is like 2+ feet long and the only way this work is on top mount turbo setups with long oil returns...I will be testing it before it leaves the garage..

Pic from front of turbo....

Still waiting to receive the last 90 degree coupler and T-bolts to finish everything. So last things to do before first start.

1)Finish turbo output piping to Supercharger
2) Reinstall supercharger and finish inlet for boost
3) Throttle body fittings for AIC and Brake booster need to make them solid so they dont pop out with boost
4) install exhaust

** prime turbo with oil...then do startup and check for oil leaks..

last but not least

1) ARP head studs
2) 60# injectors
3) tune, Dyno and have fun

 Downpipe installed, wideband O2 and oil line

 view from above

 you can see the oil line here

 another shot of the downpipe...which fit very nicely

 removed the charger I want to redo the Input side to take boost

 quick shot of the turbo pipe going to Supercharger It will be nicely installed with rubber/metal hangers against and behind intercooler

shot of the charger still in good shape... more to come...

Update Project is going forward nice and slow... working on the turbo side of my setup.

Received and regasket the oil adapter, welded bolts (dont have a oil cooler), installed turbo oil inlet sandwich

 clocked it so it fit under the header..

 manifold installed...bolt holes had to be enlarged as it didnt fit but was very close ...no big deal

 38mm wastegate installed fitting ready for intall...

 her it is install with the fitting pointing in right direction.

 I installed the turbo temp so to clock the housing properly ....

installed filter and I will need a 90degree coupler to join the turbo outlet and pipe...

so far so good still lots of work but its coming along like I promised a twincharged M20 by spring so stay tuned...
