Any room for a supercharger on a E30 w/M50? Anybody done one?

I'm pretty sure there is a picture of a supercharged 24V swap in the "show us your engine bay" thread.

Reviving an old thread!
That s/c looks huge, any idea what type it is?
Does the ABS pump need to be relocated?
What happens to the airfilter?
Any other clearence issues?
Is there space for an intercooler?Comment

A friend of mine has one.
Still has ABS afaik (ill ask him)
Air filter was a truely custom set up. Im not sure if your familiar with the DINAN e36 cold air set up but thats how his is routed. It basically put the filter right behind the drivers side fog light.
Different kits are different so itd be up to you to figure out what you need to do.

The car with the huge polished supercharger above you can clearly see the ABS pump is in its original location .
There have been a bunch of E30 with 24v running the cenrtifugal superchargers so its pretty much a given that everything fits like it should .
There are booster clearance issues with the new twin-screw superchargers though .
The Eurosport model won't work in e30's ..but to me it looks like the AA kit would clear the booster .Comment

The TS s/c are $$$.
AA uses rotrex? And Eurosport? What about the VF vortech set up?Comment

K i lied. My friend origionally had abs but decided to go with the 3.5 inch hfm and piping so he had to loose it.-ChrisComment

Upgrade for the S50
Is it really worth it to:
For now
540HFM, 3.5 adapter, 21.5 injectors from s52 and AA or Turner Chip - for about $ 600-700? Power expected, they say about 25 rwhp? - is it power you feel?
They say the 24lb injectors is not needed unless you do the cams too, (info from Active A)
Not doing the cams, would cost over $ 1500-1700 with install and update retainersComment
