Turbo e30: Its Alive!!!
 

Finally got her running last night. Idles great. Need to bleed the brakes so I couldnt take it out.

Only problem was that oil was spewing out of the turbo. Realized I still had the valve cover breather hooked up to the intake mani. Retarded. So it will get rerouted tonight.

so what's left? downpipe?

Re: Turbo e30: Its Alive!!!
 

Thats it. I'm having a machine shop cut out the flange cause u cant get them for this turbo. Then down pipe and exhaust. Thinking of running a Burns straight thru muffler side exit.

Yeah its kinda ganster. I will eventually replace it with a be1 piece bend just so its lessens the chance for a leak.
