    One last question for folks before i make my final decision:

    With an IC, e85, 80lb injectors, ported heads LIM and SC, and 1.9 rockers and meth, what should I expect to run and trap in the quarter (ball park) This is generally what i personally consider a maxed m90 build. I dont plan to run a cam, or do anything extreme with intercooling.

    What about a precision 6262 with Intercooling e85 and rockers?

    Upper 13's with bad traction. Upper 12's with good traction.

    Turbo, it's going to depend a lot on how aggressive you get. Low boost and street tires will be in the 13's. High boost and slicks will get you 10's.

    That's also assuming your track isnt on top of a mountain.

    Should be right around 115mph, running low 12's. Maybe upper 11's.

    What do people do with their ECU when they remove the stock intake?

    Just found out the ship time on a z3 kit is like 2 months. That definitely pushes me back towards the IC (pending shipping time)

    Final questions before i order stuff ( i promise)

    1. What size pulley would you folk run with: rockers, intercooler, e85
    2. What would you run just with full e85
    3. what would you run with Just the IC on pump gas and rockers?

    Most people zip tie the computer to the frame that's right under the air box. The blazer pcm tray also works great for holding it.

    1. 2.7 or 2.8. You could probably go smaller if you want.
    2. 3.0-3.2.
    3. 3.0-3.2.

    Well i just dropped a Bunch of money.

    FS IC
    2.9 Pulley
    AEM e85 pump (from Summit)
    Billet fuel logs
    80# injectors
    Valve cover breather
    Belt wrap
    1.9 rockers



    I haven't decided yet, but i might pull the LIM off and port it and the supercharger. Seriously considering getting some heads from the JY and building those in my spare time.

    It does if you drill your intake... havent decided if im going to do that yet. Is there a reason to drill over using the breather?

    If you can retain pcv, it will help your engine bay stay cleaner.

    Power produced will be better with a breather.
