Hi guys,
I'm new to the e30 community, but not to the bimmer community. I recently purchased a 1986 325es. I just finished restoring my suspension with all new bushings,control arms, and a set of ie stage 3/billy sports.
Over the next year I plan on purchasing either an m30b35 or another engine and building a turbo set up while I'm at school. I am going to an automotive school so ill have access to all the resources I may need (experienced teachers/tools) I was wondering what would be the best bang for buck engine to go with for a turbo. I thought about building a 2.7i stroker, but I am not sure of the possible gains, and if it would be more worth it to go that route.
Basically what I am asking is, which engine would you guys recommend for a turbo build that would put down the most hp/dollar.
Im sorry if this has been covered a million times, which im sure it has, but i tried searching and couldn't find enough information to help me decide.
Thank you,
Benny
