    switched pick ups with Armonds s14 pump. Thing was in tip top shape. Not a speck of grease, not a bit of dirt, shiny inside, and was still tight/ immaculate! Thanks guys for the great advice. Im thinking about in the future creating a upgraded pick up in a machine shop for fun. seems like it could be cool!

    Hey, I havent forgotten. Im in the process of learning how to sew VIA sewing machine. I assumed most would want it done by sewing machine, but I prefer hand stitching. Speak up so that the voices are heard! Morgan

    Cd, you never cease to crack me up. What is funny is that I bought harnesses near the beginnig of the build so the gf dad would feel safer with me having the car haha

    So my engine is a 2L 8.5:1 compression. Forged pistons head is a 1.8I head with +1mm stainless exhaust valves. the camshaft is a 290 degree schirck copy with either 9.5mm or 10.0mm of lift. the head has been ported and polished very efficiently. tubular exhaust header, with a 38mm tial external wastegate. turbo is a .63 AR 50 Trim. Im soon going to be hunting a new turbocharger. such as an HX30 or HX35 sized holset i didnt catch your email address so I just typed it our here lol.

    how much of an advantage is that really? I cant reallyafford the lee set-up, but it is interesting to understand how one thing is better than the other for a curiosity stand point. Looks like it doesnt matter what pump I grab really, Therefore i'll probably go for that s14 pump from armond, check the internals. and keep the pickup in case in the far future I wanna do a hot oil pan set up
  15. fiftytakedowns
    so does that mean the evo s14 pump will work with the 2002 oil pickup head? Or it is not a good idea?
  16. fiftytakedowns
    I bet I would be safer with an OEM BMW s14 pump with (<5K) miles than picking up a new febi pump. I have my spare OEM 320i pump and my 2002 pump. and As it looks by the internals they are pretty robust. Ill look at the internals of the s14 pump and make sure they are qualified for possible replacement. but at Sub 5k it's almost a wash. Ill just swap dipstick tubes! Morgan Also just found this: http://www.vacmotorsports.com/catalog/bmw---s14-sport-evo-oil-pump.htm And Also the Rotors inner and outer together are around 75 Dollars. BTW I would by the s14 evo pump for roughly 75-80Dollars

    Hey hey, Im nearing the end of the bottom end build of the 2002 Turbo, and pretty much the funds are done (if I want to still get friends/ (g/f's family) presents). I realized that the oil pump I have was not new, but old, which leaves me in a perdicament. OIl pumps can be had for anywhere from 150 - 405 dollars from brands such as Meyle, Febi, and OEM BMW. Unforunately I cant afford OEM BMW which Is what I would ultimately rather have. However, I ultimately question Meyles quality(150$ with 2yr warrant), and fee more secure about Febi (250$) Blunt headed me in the right direction, but a third party stepped in. my homie Armond as you all know, has an S14 (Evo I believe) pump, I know the evos put out a little bit for pressure... but anyway. Its at a price I can hardly refuse, and I believe the pump is a low mileage pump, <10K.... however. I put nearly everything I had on the line for this build, and am not so sure about the margin of risk Involved. Just seeking the advice of you all, and it is easier to organie my thoughts as I write them. Happy Holidays!!!! Morg

    Dude, you are a champ. If you get a chance, could you email me a Screen shot of your timing Table? Also, What would you recommend is the key to the hidden power of turbocharged engines ?
  19. fiftytakedowns
    How much would you want for the turbocharger?
  20. fiftytakedowns

    Never even seen a urethane failure like that before. there different grades of urethane, some of which can be as soft as rubber.
