    M52 expected power?

    What sort of power to the wheels will I be looking at with:

    K&N Intake
    M50 Manifold
    Schrick 264/256 Cams
    Underdrive Pulleys
    BBTB
    M3 3.5" MAF
    Headers & Full exhaust

    tune/software


    A rough estimate would be great, thanks.

        I think you're above the 200whp mark. Depends how healthy your motors is to begin with though. From what I've read, ditch the BBTB. If you ever dyno I'd say you're about 215

          OK thanks for the advice I've noticed elsewhere that people say the BBTB isn't worth it.

            ugh so much bad info...

            I dyno'd my M52 with M50 intake manifold, S52 cams, pink injectors and Turner Motorsports S50 tune. 225whp



            I have the correct TRM tune now and about 20k more miles. I maybe go back and dyno again someday
