I promise it’ll be worth it! I have some cool videos on there about my 135i and will be posting tons of videos once I have my new Doc Race 6266 single turbo kit installed.

Thanks everyone! I don't wanna let you down, so I put together a brief build update and showed off my new single turbo kit. First time doing something like this, so let me know what you think!

So, what if I get you half now, and half later?

My buddy Lee has been helping me behind the scenes on some stuff due to my lack of motivation. He's a certified BMW tech. Anyways, on to the updates.

We swapped over all the accessories from my previous motor. Injectors, water pump, HPFP, oil filter housing, tensioner, pullies, etc. Took a peek at the internals while we installed the new valve cover and oil pan gasket. Everything looked minty. Then we fitted the single turbo parts. Everything is coming together nicely. I'm going to walnut blast the intake valves this weekend, then it should be ready to go back into the car.

I've decided to continue with the vlog-style videos for now. Here you can see the full kit installed, and I answer a question I've been asked a lot.

Damn. Thats one clean engine. Its rare to see the internal this clean. Someone took good care of it before. Good find on the engine

That's what I was thinking. It looked almost brand new! Fingers crossed that it holds up.

Digging the new videos. That kit looks mean!

Searched through this thread/channel and totally realized that your NoFlyZone video was the one that really got me intrigued into buying an N54 vehicle. Glad to see that you are making progress and that the car is going to be even faster!
