[QUOTE="ALBundy, post: 464617, member: 15"] To do force induction in a BMW engine is not easy, more so when ours are right hand drive units. I have done one with a M42 engine of which after much money and time spent, I sold it off cheaply!! It all depends on how anal you are with the setup. If you want everything to be perfect, then it would be tough to do so because the engine is built as a NA engine, and as such there will be plenty of retrofitting works and compromise as well. And in some cases, are you comfortable with "compromises"?? As for horsepower, it will be enough when you can't control the beast at full throttle. 350 to 400 whp should be enough le :) Anyway, there is one turbocharged E36 M3 running around Klang Valley, not too sure if its still in one piece. The front internal wheel arch was cut to fit the turbo :) Cheers [/QUOTE]
