I agree top mount would be cool but I dont think there is any room. You have to remember that this engine is slanted towards the exhaust side. Really puts a damper on things unlike the 2JZ.

Top mount is VERY hard lol

DO IT. lol top mount! now im hoping for miracles, i need to relax.

(top mount suggestion)
move the intake by right off the turbo and relocate the reservoir where the current dci/intake box is mounted. like retrofitting the one from an e60 m5

or front center like the e39 m5... either design frees up plenty of top space on that side of the bay

examples of the reservoirs
(E60)


(E39)

It's not the PS Reservoir that's in the way...

[Q4P]

Since we're moving things around let's turn the engine sideways and do a forward facing turbo with no intake at all that feeds directly into the intercooler;






No but seriously, I doubt shiv is moving anything around.

sry i should have specified. i was referring to relocating the coolant resevoir

there are also TONS up aftermarket options for reservoirs from people doing this on on cars in the past. this isnt the first car that this has been in the way on lol

Haha, that would be nice!

Shiv, does it matter whether or not you have a rev2 or 2.5/3 with the aggressive map?

[FastBimmerN54]

Must have 2.5 or 3 for aggressive maps. Thats all that matters.

bump bc this thread makes me gay and excited

[3-Serious]

Are the more aggressive maps done and ready to be down loaded?

[klipseracer]

VIP Racing already did a top mount. Looked stupid as hell.

[Young_Man]

I thought the top mount that VIP Racing did looked pretty decent.

Took me a while but I found it. Looks like the thread went to sh*t a few pages later. No surprise. I didnt realize how long ago this happened.

BTW it just leads you to this thread..

Boring tuesday bump

I understand Shiv your using the PWM meth system with aggressive maps to be most effective but will it work fairly decent with the PPS kits with these new maps?
