Not bad for a 17 year old indeed! Damn impressive my dude, let us know if you ever bring this car down to San Diego I would love to admire the build, looks like you've been doing a great job so far.

hahah, thanks man. a little update on this build, motor had bad compression, so i swapped the whole turbo kit into my 135i and its making crazy power and all ive ever wanted from my car. dynoed at 640 hp on 23 psi with just DI and cm7 meth nozzle. had to dial it back down to 20 because the clutch was slipping. New clutch was just installed right now, and my new cm14 nozzle came in which is good for around 28 psi. i might be coming down to san diego tmrw for just driving the new cluch in until i break it in. ill keep you posted

Not surprising JP works car would have so many issues.

Impressive work for a 17 year old. When it is done you are going to have a fast car for a teenager! Best of luck and thanks for documenting it all.

I'm salty about this. Props to you rominun for finding a diamond in the rough and all the budget work to make this a beast!
