Awesome build! I just used dual intake cams on my NV to wake it up some

I was evaluating such solution. However i decided to go S50 cams and vanos to take advantage of the lower end torque for daily drive plus I'm getting a TRM chip off the shelf for $350 which only will work with a vanos engine and S50 cam set up. So if everything goes well I'm expecting a 205 hp engine approximately; until i do a dyno. More to come!

on the cam shaft sensor, which oring you used?

Emmanuel
I used the non vanos oring. I took it off the non vanos cam sensor and install it on the vanos sensor. It fits good only when i screwed back the sensor be careful since it fits tight once the bolt is all in.
Attached is a photo to compate the oring sizes NV small Vanos green ( too thick)

This is an interesting old school take on it -some overlooked issues

Hard to time properly.

No knock sensors.



The most drastic change between the NV and vanos is Knock sensors. This allows computer advance of spark till knock threshold- its an upgrade in processing power also

And the surgery begins!!! Should be ready in 2 weeks (due to my work schedule)

M20 is out; another step closer to the M50

I'm considering adding Vanos to my M50NV and have a few questions for any of you that have completed this swap.

I think I would need:
Vanos wiring harness
413 DME
Vanos unit
Vanos valve cover
Vanos CPS
Vanos vibration dampener

What about cams and lifters? Would I just need an M50tu intake cam or would I need both?

[emmanuel.dlc]

go for s50 cams while you are there (if the budgets allows)

vanos maf sensor
knock sensors
filter housing (as is different because of the vanos line port)

that should complete the list.

see my earlier post - you will need S50 cams or M50 cams for vanos - Yes! I used the cams; lifters and trays

Awesome man, I'll be looking forward to see some engine bay pics!

Thanks guys. I'm going to start picking up parts tomorrow for a 413 red label and vanos conversion.
