      @@pogolegs8587 to have the kit installed is about $3200. But that doesn't include the purchase and install of a lower compression head gasket, arp bolts, etc.. I took mine to a shop called OTP Automotive, ask for Ken the owner. He's a really good guy and will take care of you.

Plan is to put a s54 in it but the more i watch your videos the more i consider a big turbo ! keep up the good work.

      Honestly I think I’d rather remove the turbo kit, I want something naturally aspirated again or maybe just a smaller turbo…

    Question. I just turbo my 98 E36 M3 and my car would not start. It turns out to be because the SAP pump was removed so No power is going to the coils. When the sap pump is plugged in the car starts normally. when I unplug the SAP the car dies instantly. Did you remove your SAP system? Do you have the same issue? Any idea why my SAP system functions that way?

    I wish you would talk about the back housing a/r s and differences in sriving characteristics... I have a gtx3576r on a 3.0 , I have a .63 and a .82 , mid build atm. Also, cant wait for the driveshaft/diff work. I need to source a m5 lsd and shafts for my e39 530it build. ( I also own a white 94 e36)

    Hey, nice build! Question about the bottom mount because I'm considering that for my Z3, did the engine mount get in the way of the turbo plumbing going to the front?

    • @alexkichigin
      @alexkichigin  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Once you click the turbo properly there’s plenty of room if you use 2.5” piping. If you’re going 3” for the charge pipe that’s going to be a little tight😬

  • @SonyPsp08888
    @SonyPsp08888 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    thanks for the video but one thing i was curious was where did you get the oil feed for the turbo and the the water feed and return for the turbo? do you have any problems with ac lines? and the routing of turbo hot side to the intercooler? i've seen a couple way of routing it but it seems like in you car it doesn't run underneath the subframe which would be ideal, have you had any issues with oil temp and needing an oil cooler?

    • @alexkichigin
      @alexkichigin  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sorry forgot to include those. The hose for cooling is a silicone hose that you can find here: www.amazon.com/High-Performance-Silicone-Heater-Hose/dp/B082G46V96/ref=asc_df_B082G46V96/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=416905373695&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=2083126208624677437&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1015254&hvtargid=pla-870656269894&psc=1&tag=&ref=&adgrpid=90814294741&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvadid=416905373695&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=2083126208624677437&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1015254&hvtargid=pla-870656269894
      The oil feed is just a barbed wire with the proper size on Amazon. At first I was sketched by ordering there but haven’t had any issues.
      The oil drain is also a silicone hose that can be found here: www.atpturbo.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=ATP-OIL-024&Store_Code=tp
      So there’s 2 ways of running the charge piping. Under the subframe and over. Under means that the piping will be exposed and will get bent if your car is low but if it’s over the subframe then the piping is protected. I have mine set up over the subframe since my car is very low. So far no issues with oil temps, but the efficiency will definitely be better once I install those! Thank you for reaching out, glad you found the video informative!

    I dont know if you mentioned it, but how much boost is it running to make 500hp? I have the same exact setup as you, (bottom mount) pushing 6psi now, csx racing intercooler, and tial wastegate. But im curious to know what is the too range for boost on a stock block.

    • @alexkichigin
      @alexkichigin  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Those kits could go either way, most of the time the turbos blow after a few thousand miles if that, other things that could go wrong is the wastegate and manifold cracking. Although I hear the kit s have gotten better over time

    Could you talk about your intercooler piping? At one time you call it "CES intercooler piping". Another time you call it "CS intercooler piping". So which is it? I went on the CES webshop. I dont see anything about any intercooler piping.

    • @alexkichigin
      @alexkichigin  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      It kinda sounds like I said “CS” but when I say “CES” fast it comes out like that. As far as the piping give them a call about it. They usually sell it with their kit but I think it can be sold separately
