    Modding a m50b25

    Sorry for being a noob, but i've been searching everywhere on how to mod a non vanos m50. This is what i know....

    - 95 m3 cams - Any other cams i can use that would give me better gains?
    - Chip - i dont know what chip is the best other than tuner motorsports?
    - exhaust - im going with 2.5 from manifold back. no cats 2 resonators.
    - Intake - i can make a good intake setup with a heat sheild.

    Anything else i can do?
    - for NA gains.

    Another question i have is where can i go shopping other than tunner motorsports?

    M3 cams won't work on a m50nv. I can't remember which ones do work, but its somehtin like the intake one goes on exhaust side and then a custom intake one. Look that up, its been well covered, I just can't remember the ones exactly.

        The trick is to get one schrick cam for the exhaust and move the stock exhaust cam to the intake side.

              If you need schrick cams, get the part number or specs and email me. Even if you just need one, we can get them.

                    With the tools. About $150 on ebay, I think.

                    Instructions are on the net in like 100 places, or you can get the TIS, or you can look in the bentley.

                      im asking like do you just time it normally, like is the timming marks work or will they be oposite and so forth.

                      I know how to time cams, im just saying since i have two intake cams how do i time it.

                        You'll need to degree them manually. Schrick will have the specs and it's a pretty painless process, not that i've ever done it.

                        Or you may be able to just do them the regular way. :dunno

                          do you guys have any turbo manifolds that will work with a m50 in a e30?

                              really that fits a e30?
                              I ve been told no one makes a manifold for a m50 that works in a e30
