1993 245 trutac in manual dif from 1990
Sorted suspension to my happiness.
1990 NA block
BMW Squirters
2.5L Penta Crank
Wiseco Pistons
RSI rods
530 head
Enem K15 cam
Overall Goals:
300+HP
Street driving, lower lag
Air conditioning
FITS 240 on 90+ manifold
Plan:
90+ manifold for now
Jao made 3" side exhaust
Robert Davis radiator
NPR intercooler
Initial start and shakedown/troubleshooting:
LH 2.4 with TLAO chips
browntops
M47
Further Testing:
proper more accurately sized modern injectors
Ostrich and Buchka wasted spark as needed, MS when needed
have T5 to install as sorting gets close to "finish" to keep M47 for different project.
Desire turbocharger with integral and CBV for simplicity.
Desire turbocharger with internal wastegate for simplicity and room to retain factory AC.
Will also allow JAO exhaust I have and like, that has a conical interface for a 15g that I will have rewelded into proper config for new turbo, preferably with a V band clamp setup, I like easy dis/assembly
Cheap Chinese turbo acceptable as a bridge to more expensive quality unit as info ad goals solidify.
Parts on hand:
conical 15g, which might go in for basic testing of engine/control if project delayed and I get bored, but I prefer to build/assemble as much as possible on stand.
Proturbo header with 3" downpipe/external wastegate for Holset.
HY35 Holset
HX35? Holset
This setup interferes with AC, unacceptable, will be sold eventually, or traded.
Input?
Looking for input for turbo choice, advice supporting mods aren't as useful here, they will be handled as they come up after this decision point is past.
