I was thinking of slapping on a turbo onto my 1987 325iS. I'm getting most of my parts from VAC motorsports. Right now my car is bone stock with the exception of lowering springs. My power goals are 350hp this winter and in the summer going up to 450 or maybe 500. Parts List:
VAC - M20 'Pro Series' Turbo Build Kit- comes with MLS head gasket plus head studs
Kamotors Canyon Crusher kit
Miller - M20, ProStreet Induction Kit
Bosch - Universal High Volume In Tank Fuel Pump ' 040
VAC Billet BMW Rocker Arm Set (M20)
BMW M20 Turbo Camshaft - Mild Grind
Some of the questions I had were.. Would you recommend getting a forged crank? or at least a new em one because the motor has 174k miles on it.
Does the head need to be ringed and the water channels welded? Not sure on this because the turbo it is coming with a MLS hg.
And since the Kamotors Kit will need me to remove the oil cooler, should i just pick up a universal one by Mishimoto? Plus, if you recommend anything else please comment! Anything Helps! Thanks.
