[QUOTE="Chris Cab, post: 144719, member: 109"] Ya the M30B35 option really is not an improvement, but just extra weight and less power. I have seriously considered a turbo setup or supercharger but it would mean having a blown BMW and I don't know if i can live with myself for molesting the marque in that way ;) Anyhow, it made sense to me cuz I already have a forged crank and new rods, but I'd have to change my high compression pistons. Regarding the S50B32, isn't it possible to do an OBDI conversion to the engine. I mean that engine produces 320hp right outta the box, and I really can't see just the addition of more aggressive cams to an S50B30 (286'ish hp) gettin me up to 320hp. Another option i have, which could be fun, but VERY pricey....buy an E30 M3 from the US and bring it in for parts, use the body parts i need, and stroke the S14B23 to 2.5L, but the thing about this option is the lack of torque compared to my current setup.......but the cool factor of a 2.5L S14 dayuuuum! Uncle Tobby: Thanks bro....my cab has a 3.0L stroker in it so it can move quite well ;) [/QUOTE]
