      Aside from showing yourself to be offensive, lacking experience and ignorant in the ways of business, you're also illiterate and imprudent. Beyond that, your sense of liability is severely impaired.

          Short pull 2, 3, 4th gear feathering the throttle with a little wheelspin in 4th at the end. How do you like this camera angle??

                    Bottom end specs?
                    Crank:
                    Rods:
                    Pistons:

                    Your car sounds like no other m50 turbo I have heard, and it sounds insane!
                    What are you running for tuning?
                    Thanks!

                      M52B28 crank, CP pistons and SPM rods. Yeah it sounds pretty mad @ 7600 rpm :D (hard revlim @ 8k)

                      Im using Autronic SM4 ECU which also controls boost by gear and traction control. Its pretty neat :)

                        Mostly wondering what you did to your M50 from the time you bought it until now. lol

                        I assume b28 crank, not sure what pistons/rods, no idea on head work or gasket setup

                          Yeah 2.8 crank, CP pistons, SPM rods. Head is lightly ported by me and mated with PPF Z2 cams and im using a PPF pyramid head gasket with ARP bolts.

                            I missed your post before my last one, whoops.

                            No upgraded valvetrain to go to 7600/8000?

                            Any reinforcement/changes at diff/axles?

                              O forgot, im using Supertech valves and springs with PPF CrMo retainers and M54 cam carriers and lifters.

                              Stock 26 years old E30 cv axles :D Diff is from a stock E30 M3. I dont race much with big drag tires so thats probably why it works well.

                                haha I guess that might be enough to keep it in one piece.

                                I love your car. I've had an m50 and m52 lying around for 2 years now and I keep going back and forth on if I should swap one. Then I wonder I should then boost it, and then start pricing up different levels of rebuilds and built internals. I'm still on the fence, but I love how your car turned out.
