Default Turbo E28 at a local car show (updated pics and vid)

A local church hosted a car show last weekend. I decided to swing by and check it out. It was mostly American muscle, but we had 3 BMW's out there. One of the local photographer's took a few pics of my car and I figured I would share them. Enjoy!

Not sure. No dyno #'s on this setup. It made 270rwhp and 350rwtq on a stock K27 turbo, 30lb injectors, FMU, TCD timing chip, water injection, and no intercooler @ 14psi.

It feels much faster on this setup at 11 psi.

Today I converted all 4 windows to manual because I was tired of dealing with dead window motors in the rear. I purchased all of the parts new through bmw and it was extremely simple to convert. Overall took me about a hour to do all 4.

Front door


Rear door


Don't mind the window switch in the rear door. I need to either find a plug for it or re cover the door panel. I also need a euro center console now to get rid of the window switch's. More euro mod's on the way in the next few months

More info on the window conversion please! Great idea vs replacing regulators over and over. Did you just use real oem for part #s? Also, do you have any videos of the car driving? I'd LOVE to see it in action.

I'll post the details on the window conversion soon. I need grab my receipt for the part #'s.

I'm going to be doing some tuning tonight. I'll try to get a video of it at 15psi.

Car is looking good, my turbo e28 is currently under the knife. Todd's kits are awesome cant wait to see what your car puts down. The 745i manifolds are pretty restrictive in my experience, so im eager to hear how your set up turns out once its tuned.

I was really close to swapping my turbo and manifold when I had everything apart. In the end I couldn't justify spending the extra $. I got most of these parts second hand for really good prices and it's more than enough power to get me in trouble, lol.

Agreed, my last set up was the tcd 60 trim with the 745i manifold and a front mount and I had plenty of fun. I am going with a top mount twin scroll this go around with a holset hx35/40 hybrid. I also ditched the distributer and went wasted spark with a new standalone. I just wish the paint on my car was half as good as yours.
