that red e46 has a very rare factory installed body kit on it. At least where i come from its rare. ive never seen it on an e46. It was the early 2000s i believe when BMW stopped calling everything M3 body kit and they went to "individual" options route for the common folks to make them feel more special when ordering their cars.

checking out this series, have pretty much convinced me to do this one day. I got an even higher mileage e46 that I plan to drift. I gotta say if you were able to sell the whole bottom turbo setup as a kit, especially already welded as needed, I would buy it without a doubt.

How does the ppf manifold compare to the m50 manifold swap?
Single vs Dual vanos turbo? is it worth converting the m52 head?
I've been thinking about doing this for awhile now, is there no way to run cats with any of these turbo kits? Since the cats are attached to headers/exhaust manifold.
You definitely convinced me I’m gonna turbo my car in the future. How much can these motors handle “comfortably” with stock internals?

10 psi tho will go over 300 hp healthily but ONLY use the b30 engines there is no point in boosting the 325s or anything else
Currently doing a bottom mount turbo as well but I’ll be running ms45 ecu. My tuner is having me tap into cylinders 3 and 5 on the manifold for the o2 sensors. I’ll be running an rs4 maf sensor. Going for a real conservative build around 8-10 psi. I think I’ve spent right around what you have.

It’s so cool to see the e36 is basically the Honda civic/Acura Integra of BMW when it comes to modifying. I know slim to nothing about BMWs. I was raised to hate them. My dad sold Acura. Haha. I owned an 88” 325is coupe with a 5 speed. I did timing belt, water pump, motor/trans mounts, and spark plugs. Simple stuff. Seafoamed the engine, and blew a massive chunk of carbon completely fouled a brand new plug. I would’ve kept the car but the entire floor was rusting out and I had no means to fix it. The carpet weighed 100lbs!!!
