I finally have something to contribute to the site. This project has been a couple of years in the making. Well, Low and behold its finally running. I purchased this car from a fellow 318ti.org member. Its started life as a very clean 95ti. I installed a built s52 bottom end with an obd1 head. Added an AA stage 2 turbo kit and many other goodies. Hoping to break the 10 with this sometime this year when we are done tuning it. The parts have been purchased from Vivid Racing, and assembled by Vaughn motor works. I am personal friends with both business owners and trust them immensely. Here is a write up that Mitch at vivid did on the car. http://www.vividracing.com/blog/author/mitch/ I will take more pix of it as well as the quarter mile time when its finally done with the tuning and is back home. | | | 04-29-2009, 04:09 AM | #2 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2008 Location: Bethlehem, PA Posts: 1,106 | sick.. cant wait for the pictures.. how fast do ya think this thing will be when u are all done?? __________________ Check out our new website! https://soltechsolutionsllc.com/ Green Your Decor with the Aspect!

I only used the m42 to drive it home, then started taking the car apart. I will have the final dyno numbers in about a week. Should see around 500whp on 109. We will see. | | | 05-01-2009, 05:04 PM | #8 | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Eugene Oregon Posts: 6,182 | there was a very nice turboed s52 ti on here but i am not sure where he went. welcome __________________ -Josh Sold-1995 318ti, Club Sport, Hellrot Sold-1996 318ti, Active Model, Boston Green Current- 1995 318ti, sport model, schwartz | | | 05-01-2009, 07:43 PM | #9 | Senior Member Join Date: Mar 2005 Location: NJ Posts: 1,625 | freaking cool man... more pics - videos -specs, etc. __________________ SOLD!SOLD!SOLD!SOLD!SOLD!SOLD!SOLD!SOLD!
