There’s another single turbo isf on Instagram. His is under the car inline with the exhaust. Based on turbo placement, it has to be easier to go under the car. I wonder how this guy wrapped both headers to the turbo in front of the tire?

The underbody single turbo makes 500 whp on e30 with a tune I think, running 5 PSI. I’d suspect similar numbers for any similar build. The fuel system needs upgraded.

It’s easier on the engine too because there isn’t parasitic loss from turning a blower.

He retuned it after that. At that time he had just unplugged the battery, so everything was reset. He is making more power now. Runs hard AF. I think he now makes 542/565 at 5 pounds. He might go up a pound or two, but for now its good.

That makes sense because KCLV drops to like 15 when you reset the ECU and slowly goes back up. 560 whp is really nice for 5 pounds of boost.
