m535 turbo

Post by hks »

Bought this zinnoberrot m535 turbo a while back and i have been reading this forum a while so it was a time to make an account and post some pictures about this car here. :)

It is originally built in sweden and then done some fine tuning and sorts in finland.
Currently running a big holset, maxxecu and full e85.

it needs a bit of TLC, but working on it.
And currently it runs great, just that it looks a bit "messy"
What do you mean A>A or W>A

Pinned Hub
head ported and valves "done"

Air to air or water to air intercooler. It's super tight up front. How did you fit?

Also, that z55 cam is pretty aggressive. How deep were the valve reliefs you cut?

Ah, it is Air to Air. 100x300x600mm size.
Install was not done by my me as it was installed in sweden, oil cooler is done here in finland and it is places on the right side.
It is a bit tight on the front and i think somethings heave been cutted away to make room.
Dont also know how deep are the reliefs on the valves, i know a couple of other guys running z55 on m30 i can ask from them.
