Aluthman's Intro and Build thread

thats a perfect fit for the 7163…Adam when are you starting your 7163 build?

Depends when Derrek starts selling TS manifolds…

Why are you using the 7670?

Lol wrong one. I was messing around with all of them early.

I think 20 psi at 3000 rpm on a 7163 is wishful thinking. My K0R can do it, but just barely.

I have it set up in the twinscroll .80a/r hotside configuration, according the tutorial videos borg warner posted at the bottom this should be possible on a 2 liter.

If that’s the case, then it’s definitely fap-worthy…

no way…20 psi at 3000??? I make 7 psi at 3000 hahahahah, welp I’m jealous.

Swapped out my platinum Recaros for a black set.

Looks better with the darker seats.

I see black door cards - did the car come with black seats?

The stock seats were black, but I got the platinum Recaros for a steal. They just never grew on me, so I sold them (for a slight profit) and bought a black set that was heated.

Yep - platinum seats are polarizing for many people. I love mine. Reminds of E28 M5 color combo. :slight_smile:

BTW - what are you running wiring for to your windshield? If it is a radar detector, they are easy to hardwire!

I have the microphone for my headunit mounted in the top left corner. It works with my phone via bluetooth. I need to find a better spot for it though, because I’ve had people complain about the sound quality.

Looks great!

Now that that is taken care of it’s turbo time

Meth maybe, but the turbo will probably have to wait until after the wedding…

You’re obviously not married. Everything waits even after your married. Do it now. All the changes look great.

I’m gonna be getting a custom tune done soon, so we’ll see how much difference it makes vs Maestro. It will be remote tuning done via a flash loader, so I will be free to move back and forth between Maestro and the new tune to get a good comparison. More details to come.
