School me on m10 turbocharging

[Roysneon]

Since I now have 2 e30s, I've been toying with the idea of turboing my m10 instead of swapping that car to the m50.

How much work would it take to get the m10 to 200 whp? I'm planning on trying to go as cheap and dirty without having to do major fixes every week. So flipped exhaust, intercooler, injectors and stock management? Rising rate fpr?

Well I wouldn't trust a RRFPR to get my M10 to 200whp...seeing how that is more than double the factory horsepower, and the engine is 25 years old now. (Theoretical 1hp per year loss) Here is a link to a guy who DIDN'T use a Standalone, but he does have a more advanced fueling set-up. http://www.e30tech.com/forum/showthread.php?t=96376 With his set-up he did put down about 250whp.
After reading it a bunch of times (I too am toying with the idea) he fab'ed his own manifold, and is running e85 without an intercooler. I believe he said he spend about 2 grand on his set-up. Also, his engine had some miles on it before he turbo'd

I'd go read up on e30tech.

Stock management would be unwise.

just turbo an m20

The M10 head actually breathes better than an M30. Go for it. Don't see much M10 love.

Much easier to make power with an m10.
