      Should be posted in the 24v thread - http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/forumdisplay.php?f=129

      I am pretty sure it's been done.

                      How do you fit that in an e30? Money would have to pay for a shrinking machine to bring that thing to a size where you can at least not obstruct the driver's view =P

                                  A BMW motor? Or are all makes/models up for discussion?

                                  If you're sticking to BMW, I'd go E39 M5 S62. Yeas, it can be done. That or a S/C s54.

                                              ok :) yeah I guess just Bimmers.. keep it in the family

                                              I guess what I'm really curious about is the 505hp M5 V10

                                              but the 333hp I6 is fine by me
