General info on turboing 535i

Post by slammin_e28 »

Ok, so , I'm new to BMW turbos. I know all about turboing Nissan VG30E motors, such as the 300zx uses. But of BMW's, nothing. Can someone educate me on what is nessessary to turbo an M30? Comp. ratios, turbos, and anything else?

Thx.

Please pick up this book...it will clarify a lot of your questions. Re-read and then come on here with questions.


Then you can search and use the boards properly. Without reading you start asking questions like the intercooler cools the turbo.....type of stuff....

Good luck
