Most installs keep A\/C and power steering, and it works with manual or automatic transmissions. Expect strong gains at a conservative 8 psi with a proper tune. The 450+ hp figure is the hardware's ceiling at higher boost with a built engine, fueling and supporting mods, not a dyno result for a stock car.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy this kit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTIG-welded 321 stainless tubular manifold with large primaries and a thick T3 flange\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eT3\/T4 hybrid turbo with a .57 trim compressor and .50 \/ .63 A\/R housings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBolt-on internal wastegate preset to 8 psi, with V-band flange and clamp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront-mount aluminum intercooler and full 2.5\" piping kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBraided -3AN oil feed, high-temp return line and billet adapter plate included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePackage Includes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) T3\/T4 hybrid turbocharger with oil fitting gaskets and mounting studs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) Stainless tubular turbo manifold, T3 flange, polished, with gaskets and hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) Front-mount aluminum intercooler, 2.5\" inlet \/ outlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) Internal wastegate kit, preset to 8 psi, V-band flange and clamp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) Aluminum intercooler piping kit: (2) 2.5\" straight pipes, (2) 90°, (2) 60°, (2) 45° bends, (2) 2.5\" 90° silicone couplers, (6) 2.5\" straight silicone couplers, (16) stainless worm-gear clamps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) Turbo oiling kit: -3AN braided stainless oil feed line, 2 extra adapter fittings, CNC billet adapter plate, 18\" 5\/8\" high-temp 550 psi oil return line, drain and feed gaskets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) Blow-off valve kit with install kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTurbocharger Specs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: T3\/T4 hybrid, wet-float bearings, balanced\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompressor: .57 trim wheel, .50 A\/R housing, 3\" bellhorn inlet, 2\" outlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTurbine: .63 A\/R housing, T3 inlet flange, internal wastegate with V-band outlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOil inlet: 1\/8\" NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eExact Fitment — BMW\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1968–1976 2002 \/ 1600 \/ 1800 \/ 1500 with M10 four-cylinder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1975–1983 E21 318i with M10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1976–1981 E12 518 with M10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM10 SOHC four only — not for M20 E30 six, M40\/M42 later fours, or M50\/M52\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntercooler piping is universal and needs cutting and fitting per chassis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNot Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChassis-specific downpipe and exhaust beyond the turbo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarger injectors, fuel pump and ECU tune (required)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoost gauge, wideband and air filter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOil-pan return bung if your setup needs one\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProfessional installation strongly recommended.
