[ethrty]

[DeutschAutos]

[jrhaile]

[unluckykid256932]

Gustav

[jrhaile]

Yes it is...

[E30Dream]

sick video. just showed my friend it for motivation to turbo an e30. hows the e39 m5 treating you?

[zeemax23]

can anyone explain to me about the difference between Whp an HP

[jrhaile]

WHP = Wheel horsepower which means how much HP is actually going to the ground. This is really the only real way to measure a cars' performance imo.

HP can be measured at the crank/flywheel or known as BHP which means brake horsepower. This is the power an engine produces based on an engine dyno.

[zeemax23]

thanks for the answer, because i know m5 e34 has 300+ HP, so i was kinda confused. by the way freaking amazing car u own, the e30 is my fav bmw car

[jrhaile]

WHP = Wheel horsepower ie hot much it is making at the tires. HP can be measured at the crank or flywheel. WHP is the only thing that matters.

[edmonton420]

im gonna see if i can get my car a dinan setup!

[CRDLIBERTY]

LOL didnt see a turbo?

[jrhaile]

Huh? It's a bottom mount... the wastegate is clearly visible as well

[oavpndphjdpsjgpdfmcv]

[AlbertoHernandez]

[LaZCluberr]

[jrhaile]

:bigshark

[rofflewaffle]

its no e30

[jrhaile]

oh herrrrow there Tom

[krillebrozinic]

how lame... why show a car that hardly take on a stock m52? thats pathetic.....

[jrhaile]

You're a fucking moron. Stock M52? Are you kidding me? That "stock M52" smoked M3s all day long. Look at my other videos before speaking asshole.

[fidde111]

I guess you have a Lada, right?

[jrhaile]

What?

[fidde111]

I mean that guy that talked shit. He`s just jealous. Your car is f*ckin nice! And it´s a very fun car. ;)

[GrudgeRider156]

Hey I recently finished doing a turbo set up on my 1989 325i. What did you do for pcv? Because the m20 doesnt have pcv really I mean it has that tube that goes to warm up the throttle body, but it has a pressurized crankcase so I am wondering what dinan did for you? Also what injectors are you running? Thanks. Sick car by the way

[vivalawrench]

I couldn't quite tell my E30 sounds similar, but did u have a stock exhaust on that?

[jrhaile]

umm no... I don't remember what I had on it at the times of these videos to be honest.. I went through 3 different exhaust systems in about 3 months and then settled on a Dinan E36 M3 exhaust custom fitted on it

[VicSA69]

Is that a 2.5l engine with turbo? Nice job!!

[jrhaile]

yes... 2.5l SOHC with a 8:8:1 compression ratio running around 10-12psi on wastegate

[VicSA69]

What other conversions did you have to do? Did you just add a turbo on stock pistons and head?

[jrhaile]

I didn't build the car, Dinan did. But basically, it's a stock motor. Should be able to hold 17-18psi stock in my opinion..

[saweet999]

nice car always wanted one but bieng 20yo and a bmw parts will be expensive. what has been ure experience with it as far as parts cost, maintanace, reliablilty and availability of aftermarket parts.

[jrhaile]

E30s are VERY reliable. Engine wise, M20 motors will run forever and as long as you have a good tune, turboing them isn't that hard on them since the CR is around 8:8:1. Parts wise, they're abundant everywhere and no more expensive then some domestic and imports. Very easy to work on as long as you have a manual.

[jakekain]

+1 Thinking about a turbo for my m20. You most likely are part of r3vlimited or e30tech, correct?

[jrhaile]

yeah but I don't spend much time on those forums to be honest...

[jakekain]

Yeah same here, I use to but now I only go on when I need information. well, good video, enjoy the e30.

[mk1driver]

Get rid of those rediculous rims man

[jrhaile]

I did.. I since put on Alpina 17" Classics

[fancycupajoe]

oh shit man I thought you were saying that if like i were to put this on my myspace you would file a lawsuit but if that news site uses them your going to file a lawsuit. I apologize. But I want to turbo my 4 door E30

[jrhaile]

no biggie... it's a long story but ultimately I do not want them using my videos because they're using them for street racing stories here in Spokane which is total bs..

[ericmasflow]

Nice job guys, good footage

[mrsharp12]

ThAT is a great video. Nice camera work, music, and film editing!

[jrhaile]

you should really enlighten yourself and learn a little before speaking. Were kits being assembled for 1500 and 2000 for these cars in 1992? Did I pay 20k out of my own pocket? Hell no. I'm the 3rd owner. Dinan stuff is almost MUCH MUCH more expensive and that's because this turbo kit still carried a full factory warranty, something no other company can provide. I don't buy Dinan stuff personally, but this car is truly designed in a manner that is unbelievable for its day.

[PhaseOne222]

Nice ride. bump

[daedalx]

Pretty nice going straigth, does it turn?

[jrhaile]

oh it can turn :D

[paulrondeau]

holy shit man! ive got an E30 318i... whats the cheapest kit i could buy?

[paulrondeau]

How much did the turbo kit cost?

[jrhaile]

In total, it was around 20k when done in 1992 which included A LOT of stuff. This was a custom one-off at the time and not a production kit. Everything was designed and fabbed just for this car.

[serge933]

Great car you have there. what mods do you have?

[Sebaflex]

awesome.. how much HP estimated on the E30

[jrhaile]

mixed results on different dyno's... as low as 200rwhp and as high as 280rwhp with equal ft-lbs... all runs done with a leaky manifold gasket...
