Cosmos Widebody Turbo Build

[3literheater]

Here is a better picture of the front of the car. Also here are better pictures of the top intercooler mount tabs.












Here are the oil cooler lines completely installed. We had to run them forward thn loop them back down along the frame rail then up over the alternator.











We took off the intake manifold to put the 1/4" barb for the blow off valve.








Ok so that all we have for the past two months. I was working on the car yesterday and I will be working on it again later today, so updates should be soon.


Thanks Guys!!! Let me know what you think.

Did you get an inheritance from a family member? Sweet set-up! Looks like a ton of work. It felt like work just looking at all the pics lol, I hope all goes well. Should be quick!

No its my buddies car and he had a e46 M3 before and it got totaled, so he decided to boost an e36 M3.

I have a couple updates for tonight, but I might not post until tomorrow.....the garaged is kind of dark...lol

We finished the charge piping.

The hot side is a 2.5" pipe with a tight radius 90 degree on the end closest to the turbo. It has a 1/4" barb for the wastegate since the gt35r doesn't have the barb.











The cold side is a 3" pipe with a tight radius 90 at the throttle body. We machined a barb for the ICV valve and welded a plate on the back side of the 90 for the water injection port (it still needs to be drilled).











Hopefully we can have this car started this weekend.

Those welds look so good they look like a machine did them. I need to learn to weld like that.
