Okay, wasted my first eaton..
Also I have a hx55 waiting in the garage ...and some other things. only thing that is missing for sc+turbo setup is wastegate..
And now + one eaton m-90 sc.
Temps under the hood got little too far and I think the blower has sized. Have to check tomorrow what is the situation. The carbon belt works really nicely! Not a scratch even when the blower sized. just had to take it off during the way home.
Motorsports...
but overal things are getting out of hand..should be able to get 500+hp this summer with new blower and turbo. Turbo eases up the things over 4000rpm so this should take care of the problem that the blower is overdriven so hard. (specs of the belt drive are for 2.8L engine and max eaton capability of the ported blower).
When I get the turbo there it's easyer for the blower since the turbo takes over after about 4000rpm. hopefully..

Turbocharging is nice, but I´d rather be ALSO blown!
Made some datalogs yesturday/today. Plotted the boost curve. Sunday dyno?--> then turbo install.
Got burned(shirt on fire) 10% body 3:rd degree at 30.5..skin crafts/surgery etc. could not do anything for 2 months..
Evo3 blower now on the car(wasted one coupling also). Eaton m90 still and same case.
Hope that the holset wakes up somewhere in the 1.3bar area

Old injectors sold, getting today bosch EV14 1200cc or 1300c 12ohm for RE85
Can't decide between shadowline/chrome trim :/

Re: Ol`School E30 327i Cabriolet HX55+eatonM90 (Reborn, Pics
Got the E85 combatible 1200cc injectors today. Now have to decide which route to go with the E85 quality sensor.
Continental sensor seems ok priced.
Then eather Zeitronix Eca or arduino based conversion box for the Tatech T38 Pro analog input (0-5.v signal)
Anyone used the Arduino based system? I Have some unused arduinos laying around the house..
