I am new to the swap/turbo scene and was wondering if i could get some opinions on what everybody thinks/likes?
i have an 87 325i cabrio, and like everyone else, i want more power. my cabby is pretty much a garage queen, as lately i have been trying to get the outside redone, but it is almost winter and i figure it's a good time to start.
i ran across a 92 735i today for $700, car looks and runs good, reverse is out, hence the price. but i thought "snatch the engine and part out the rest." i would like n/a, just because the turbo seems like it is less reliable and harder to work on. i found an s50, but quite a bit more pricey and is it worth it in the long run, although asthetically speaking, i love the way it looks in an e30. any opinions would be nice. i have done some reading, but mainly just found the problems.
