Looks great! That shop is really clean too

Nice man.. can't wait to see more

btw.. whats with the LUTZ logo.. If thats not a blatant copy of the SSR wheels logo I don't know what is.. lol..

im subscribed for more details!

Nice! Definitely in for updates!

Hey guys, I'm Shawn, the one doing the build on Ryan's car. Happy to be making Ryan's visions a reality. I appreciate everyone's comments, looking forward to the results with the 6262 and the 3.7l motor!

lol you need to take a peak at an ///M car, the logo is the M badge with different colors. BMW's are our thing, outside of a twin scroll sidewinder GT35R Evo 8 I did awhile ago, this is the first Japanese car I've touched. I like a change of pace from time to time, I've known Ryan for quite a few years and was happy to help him out with his one-off build

Area under the curve should be outrageous with this setup!

Twin's (smaller) will typically give more power band but less peak power, single will give less area under the curve but higher peak. In this case, the pretty small 6262 on the 3.7l should have more powerband and higher peak than the twin kits I've seen. The 6262 with this a/r should start to taper off up top past 600-650whp. 96 a/r should support up to the mid 700whp range, higher than that you would need to jump up to a 6765. Ryan is looking for the most powerband maxing out around 550whp for now on the stock motor.

finally dropping the bomb, awesome! I agree that turbo bracket looks surprisingly small, I would get them to revise that for piece of mind.

In for results.

Will it be ready for ZDayZ?

This is insane! Good work, cannot wait to see the results and see a video!

I'd like to see what RPM will this hit full boost

This isn't my first rodeo, the manifold is supported in quite a few places on top of being made from sch.10 SS. The only reason the bracket shown exists was to support the turbo as I got started with the manifold. You could remove it completely and the turbo would go nowhere. The only reason I will be keeping it is because of the v-band exhaust housing. V-band flanges do not support weight as a T3 or T4 flange would. The weight focuses itself on one point on the radius and will eventually crack without an unusual amount of support.

Precision PT74 on my M-Roadster supported by the manifold only, 30k miles later, still right where I left it ;)

It will :tup:

Very nice M. :tup:

Can't wait to check the setup out in a couple weeks! :tiphat::excited:

This is exciting stuff. Good luck to you guys on the build and props for doing something new. Sounds like you run a great shop.

Man nice work in for results an RPM Spool also. Great M BTW.

In for the bulid
