So heres the situation, I picked up my current car about 6 moths ago but I am already craving more power from the m50. So my question is what do you fine people of r3v think i should do? Forced induction or S52? Feel free to weigh in with your opinions, set ups, experiences.

The S52 will be cheaper, easier, and more reliable. Since you're already swapped putting in another 24v is easy and would be my suggestion. It's enough power to have fun and surprise some people, but easily livable on the street.88 325is - S52 powered

Throw on a supercharger setup. It's about the same price as a s52, more power than an s52, easier to install and you can always upgrade to an s52 if it still isn't enough later.Comment

I think if i go FI I'm leaning more towards that route rather than turbo charging. Having all that torque down low would be amazing and more suitable to my driving style.
Edit: watching Kamren's episode on tuned makes me want to turbo now... gahh idk what to do.. On a side note i dont think there are many 24v turbos around my area and it would be cool to do my own thingLast edited by VintageBimmer; 09-25-2014, 08:19 PM.sigpic
