135i Single Turbo with Samsonas Sequential 6 speed

[Tony@VargasTurboTech]

This cool of a build, and he put a JP manifold on it. Facepalm. hahaha.. In all seriousness very cool build. We came very close to pulling the trigger on the Samsonas, VAC offered us a very good price, but in the end, its just not street friendly at all. Race car, sure go for it. Street car, you will regret it. Looking forward to when this thing is done! As for the EGT probes. This is standard for most race cars, you can see exactly what each cylinder is doing, and tailor your fuel to keep them all pretty even. Well assuming your PI controller has individual injector control.

What was wrong with the fitment?

I moved the front wastegate some to get the turbo to fit.

I will use a standalone system to run the engine and it controls all PI,EGT,Speed,Rev,Gear,Fuel,Ignition, all you need..
will not use original cluster all data will be in separate dash

Are you going to do what Motiv did and machine the head to accept n55 injectors and run a motec unit?

NO! I have no DI just PI

 

[Abacus38]

Just make sure you don't leave the DI injectors in the head. They'll become glow plugs

I couldn't imagine driving a sequential gear box on the street. Like Tony said, race car, damn rights. I'm sure this thing is gonna be nuts when it's finished. Put a good rear end on this thing and get the n54 into the 9's no prob.
