I'll leave my original question up so you can witness my stupidity, I promise to do better in the future and not contribute useless posts to this forum.
I have a K03 turbo just sitting around from an old r56 mini Cooper S I used to own. I know it's a small turbo, which is why my smooth brain thinks I can slap it on my 325i just running off 3 cylinders. Sure it sounds dumb but I figured if it can boost a little 1.6l with 21psi, it could handle 1.25l of my 2.5l, no? Obviously not as much boost,maybe like 8-10psi?
In my mind, since it's not a V6, there wouldn't be as much of an imbalance, but I basically have everything to build a setup like that and something something idle hands and a lot of free time.
I've tried googling my question but it only comes up with v6 related discussions. I feel like it'd work a little better with an I6. 3 cylinders are working a little harder to build boost for themselves and the other 3 cylinders so it seems like if there'd be an imbalance it'd be negligible.
Please educate me and talk me out of it if it's that dumb of an idea or waste of time lol.
