Mystery Turbos

[1Jarhead2]

So I am in the process of sorting out the boxes upon boxes of E9 parts that came with my 3.0csi and these were in a box marked BMW2002. Now I know that the BMW 2002 were all 4 cylinders and this setup is obviously for a 6 cylinder . what 6 cylinder,I have no idea. Anybody have a clue or swag?

I don't know anything about them, but remember seeing an e9 with that twin-turbo setup, here it is:

Thanks Gransin as this gives me a little direction in my research on this turbo setup

Many you certainly have quite the loot with that CSI purchase. Clearly not from the Porsche in the pic, but try sending the manifold pic to PFAFF tuning to see if they recognize it.

Pfaff Tuning was the very first place that I called. The tech there told me that the Pfaff he works for never made cast iron turbo manifolds. I did some more research on the links Gransin posted and that led me to other links and it looks like they are a twin turbo kit for the 3.0 fuel injected 6 but still no name as to who built the kit.

This one probably has the same turbo kit.

Indeed. Car porn is inappropriate for your delicate eyes.

Thanks to Gransin with his links as I have uncovered who made this kit and what it was built for. Corky bell and Ray Korman established the Bell Factory and started making turbo kits until the factory burnt to the ground. They built this twin turbo kit for the E9,E12 and it will fit on a E30. I need to do some more digging thru the parts and see if the rest of the kit is stuffed in the pile of boxes. Corky Bell is still designing and building turbo kits with his new company BEGi. Bell Engineering.

I looked at that kit also. I don't think that you have the Korman kit. Although the manifolds are cast, they are a completely different design, as seen below.

You are correct, I dont have the Korman kit as mine is the one where they used the pfaff cast manifolds. I talked with Stephanie of BEGi today and I am sending them some pictures so that it can be verified.
