    Also what are you putting down?

    Last time I dyno'd it it was 442whp at 13psi.

    I'm now at 18psi with a slipping clutch... I just want to break the 500whp mark.

    I also have to pop in a new t3 turbo gasket. Mine currently is venting to atmosphere.

        Got around to doing a little work on the car while in my basement.

        Popped of the foamy thing.

        It was all oil mush.

        Gently pry a bit.

        Off she comes!

        Oiled up the gasket, took a 15mm socket and tapped it home.

        After cleaning up the tar-ish residue on the rod popped on the new foamy thing on with the dowel held in by the snap ring.

                      Got the clutch and flywheel out. Gotta love zipties!

                      66c39628d0864011e43a490b08373b12.jpg507e3cddbdb748efc018dec55e67eeb5.jpgd327f7f7983d3571fd0dfa77e9b54b60.jpgc2fc8810fa05a96638eb169b2824f0b0.jpg1e04fe356e99a670d8488ed089068ccd.jpg

                      A little slipping going on there. The pressure plate is a Sachs, clutch is a Southbend stage 4 and JB racing flywheel. Couldn't handle around 400ft/lbs.

                        stock pressure plate or 618 Pp? Just the southbend stage 4 disc?

                        sk8 or die

                          Not sure. Bought the whole thing off of a guy on bimmerforums. I think it's just the disc.

                                        Shift pin time.

                                        Love the ice pick.

                                        cb1847b2702a6371e1fe24d4ef0e7a5e.jpg

                                        Slide hammer the caps out.

                                        01e0c8dd6171ded1f22b1729536ebe0c.jpg

                                        Ready to pull out the pins. I used a J-hook screw to extract them out. (The thicker screw hook to hang flower pots or decorations. Not pictured.)

                                        50d13190d0e962ccc2446e7309cc1ff8.jpg

                                        Once the pins are out drive in the Teflon collar with the correct punch. Make sure the gap in the collar points out to the right or left of the trans.

                                        ccdadaa9c1d96955ee36f302ff43dd38.jpg

                                        All at home.

                                        478953c346a0ece8a6ae54821af1dd12.jpg

                                        Drop some gear oil in the hole and install the pins and springs.

                                        780b2ac8ba673017e86021df4d4a57ac.jpg

                                        Drive the caps home with the correct punch.

                                        All done!
