So I have a spare m50nv-what to do w/it??

[dashboardmonkey]

boost it

:mrgreen:

[SpecM]

I don't know... am I the only guy here who thinks you should boost it?

maybe you should just boost it

[SamE30e]

drop it in now--boost it later. I just finshed mine and just from jack-assing around town it feels awsome! a 4:10 behind a M50tu feels great.

A 4.10 behind any M50 feels great lol.

I posted a thread in the FI section and got no replies so I'll ask here since everyone is about boosting this. Is the M51 TDS manifold usable like the M21 is for the M20? I can get one and just wondering if it is worth my time to pull and buy.

They make good boat anchors.

An M50TU makes a better turbo motor. M52s are better yet.

turbo NV head on m52 bottom end w/ MS.

before you boost it, bore and stroke it, 86mm bore with m/s52 crank and rods, then get low comp. pistons. Do it like that, you won't.

Serious? Try the 24v subforum, it's probably the best resource for all the info on variables on the 'net.
