Im selling my beautiful
E46 325ci sport
(2sexy) turbo conversion and rebuild project
clean for its age underside is very very clean
I will get in early both wings have small spot of rust I was going to rectify and ent of the project then mot time... how ever your seeing this advert ...
87k on the shell.
engines rebuilt with no miles currently
crankshaft machine re finished
all new bottom end bearings
Head and block machined to take larger headbolts
decompression plate
over
£1000 in machine shop work,
the engine had been rebuilt
with +. 5 rebore pistons
new chain kit
new oil pump

rebuild and machine shop costs together cost £5000
the turbo kit (including upgraded cluthc and flywheel )
£3900 with import charge
also has baffled sump install.

running a Owen development's gtx3576 turbo with a slightly smaller compresser wheel
£1300 I didn't want to use the some what cheaper turbo from the kit

3inch exhaust of the turbo
Needs rear section

external wastegate and big screamer pipe =)
will sound so mad!

with labour and a long list of parts I'm about 14k plus the car

what's left to do ?
cold side of the intercooler to the intake pipe , easy easy job if your handy with tools etx
needs
Rear exhast section
fuel pump (came with the kit )

and then either working with the stock ecu or a piggy bank or standalone
that's up to you at this point
it's a lovely car and with lifes surprises being ill and in hospital and with other life factors I'm unable to promptly get this car
that last ten percent done

with the aim of running 18 to 20 psi having looked closey at other people's builds this is capable of making 440 horses power and 600nm of torque
they are impressive engines when turbocharged
and it will make a crazy car
but the time and life circumstances push the sale
I have put so much into this car I will have pictures of various stages through the project
it will be sad to see her go so close to the end .
she runs
however you must know
the fact that she's now running 640cc injectors until she's mapped/ tuned etc
she doesn't like anything more than to idle because
the brain has no clue what fueling values are require etc this is where the remap/ tune programm will open up great potential but also make everything run sweet as it just needs that remap to get all values timing etc dialed in

the price is £5000 no offers what so ever
and the likely hood of you finding someone else mad enough to do this is pretty slim so this is your chance to buy into something pretty special

if you have read this far thankyou
I dont have a driveways where the mot run out during the rebuild she's not taxed etc
so if you want the car It's currently at the garage where the rebuild was completed
I would have to clear viewing with them first and of course if its to be collected etc

life changes have forced sale
i have a 8month old baby and this cars journey with me
ends here unfortunatley...
so much work had been done here and I think you will not see another like this

there were so many clowns here
no i dont want a audi
