what would the manifold pressure be for the turbo? Also, has you M10 been reworked or is it still stock?


Hi gang, I posted this to the 2002 forum already, with some pretty promising responses. Now I'd like to get some input from the E 21 crowd. I'm currently working on a Ford EEC-IV based EFI/turbo conversion on my 79 320i. My question to you guys is, would anyone be interested in a affordable($1500-2000) EFI/turbo kit for your E21? I've already finished one complete wiring harness, and at this point, it wouldn't be horribly difficult to produce some more. My kit would consist of Mostly Ford(Bosch) components, with modified BMW manifolds, and Garrett T-3 turbos. I think the advantages to my system are simplicity, and ease of repair, and diagnostics. Also never any fear of not finding parts. These would essentially be "plug n Play" systems. The capacity is also there to do EFI swaps without the turbo, and also EFI/crank triggered ignitions. The non turbo kits would obviously be less $. This is just a feeler for now, to try, and guage some interest. I'm not a business, just a chronic tinkerer who sees the possibility of a business. Thank you for listning to me. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to email, or post them to the forum.
Thanx,
Al
