We got the Biturbo driving! Doing a little catch up beforehand! Things to check out: Clutch: omdsandiego.co... Throttle Body Adapter: omdsandiego.co...
That attention to details again...never get tired of it. The custom valve covers, the setup, everything to make it look like some wild secret project done by Maserati itself in the late 80's. Well done! 👏🏻😎
I hv known Steve since 1993'ish when he had his 2toned Biturbo that had 480HP. Steve has been quite helpful with my BiT track car. Some things in vid, i did 30yrs ago.
I was like 10 or 11 and a guy like no other thanks to my dad. he would take to the only 2 exotic dealers that where less than 75 miles away. American service center on glebe in VA or motorcoach in reisterstown MD for some reason there where always '85 biturbo's and then 425's I had a couple of mags where companies tuned them but you guys got the right idea. why doesn't everyone take the hunks of shit they loved in childhood and make them usable. I just saw a build a bit ago that was one of the coolest I'd ever seen a 2zje or one of the turbo 2j's but not the supra one in a xjs. he switch all the problem stuff or corrected it. jag is know for lovely electronics.... not!! I love those bi-turbo's even better shamal's or something but this the coolest way to be able to use the cool cars we love and even make them 110% better. this is a real cool build. I love the seats from those things they looked like you would just get swallowed by leather luxury. they are no Recaro CSE or nothing but I did love them. great project!!! you all never cease to amaze. cheers
I think I remember this Jag. Saw a similar build on an R107 Mercedes-Benz SL. Pretty neat. But most people do these swaps don't care about the little details that these guys do. I also love the stock engines, like the Ferrari's and Jag's, but with the aftermarket support improving reliability. Fixing these engines in their weak points, be it in a mechanical, electronic or electric aspect.
Thank you for the kind words! I'll have to look into that XJS it sounds interesting! And I definitely agree, the OEM Biturbo seats feel like sitting on a Lazy Boy at home, it's great!
Hear me out. Quattroporte IV (AM337), the one that I consider the most underrated of them all. Powered by a Toyota 1UZ-FE. I've seen somebody do this swap on Engine Swap Depot a while ago, on a Biturbo. But they kept it N/A. I'd go for that engine, with two turbo's and full Otsuka Maxwell-grade cosmetic treatment a là Maserati, machined valve covers, intake, everything... And maybe even the engine de-stroked to 3.2L like the original.
that would be the coolest thing ever to do with one of them. i watched rocky3 or4 1000 times to see that car. there was no internet lol. yes this project is a must 100% aces idea chap. cheers@@Roddy_Zeh
Wow i would be as happy as the owner too, its the only perfect sounding 3s, mostly probably bc the turbos. If i were to get the same engine feel and sound i would need only those toda cams, a biturbo set up with its respective coolings parts and i have a redtop so even tho i dont plan to make any crazy power or will sit on limiter much do u think i should consider titanium valves? Thanks so much, hope u take this as a compliment, really loved how the engine performed and the smile it gave
I dig it! What resonator are you running? For the machined letters, man, I just use a sanding block and fine grit paper. I like the little bit of graining that happens when you do it that way. Sounds good, though!
This is the kind of stuff I dream of doing. So cool to see the 3s getting the love it deserves with all the K and F20C RWD swaps going on.
Thank you! It's a great engine!

Thank you very much!!
How does this channel only have 6k subs?? Fantastic work guys, I'm loving your content ✊
Awesome video guys!! Watching this all the way over in Australia. 🇦🇺. That valve cover was awesome!!
Thank you for the support!!
What a perfect thing to do to a Biturbo. They have always looked great but never ran like this one. Great job.
Thank you! Glad to see positive reception!

Jesus that sound !!
My maserati does 185....
Well, at least this one will
But the finishing touches like machining the top of the valve cover is perfection
We just saw Joe Walsh in concert a few months ago haha. We laughed about that line!
Awesome build, just like everything you guys do! Thanks for sharing with us.

Wtf this is sick lol
Haven't seen a video in a long time. Hope everything is okay with you guys
We're good, been working! sorry for the lack of videos.
oh yeah how about a quatroporte build. oh baby me likey!! cheers
Maybe!!! Could be fun ahahaha

The titanium valves won't make much difference for sound, and for a turbo setup steel valves or inconel are probably best!
I dig it! What resonator are you running? For the machined letters, man, I just use a sanding block and fine grit paper. I like the little bit of graining that happens when you do it that way. Sounds good, though!
It is a vibrant performance resonator! Sandpaper works great for that effect as well!
It sounds so good
Hey, wouldnt the biturbo make it a 3sge-t ? Love the build!
Haha funny enough they have a 3sge-t, but we like that high compression!
Are you using the factory steering rack?
No, It was in the wrong spot relative to the new engine. We used an after market rack made for a ford Mustang 2
@@omd_sd wow great fabrication skills. Looks like you modified the steering knuckle to come off the front of the spindle instead of the rear.
@@marcocerqueira2732 Yessir. It took some work but was worth it!
What cams are on there?
Stock cams, just redid the cam timing (there's a video on our channel of this) and opened the valve gap for turbo application
