I have access to an old 735il 1988 3.5 liter motor that runs good, how many HP are these engines it has 3430cc. Just curious.
Thanks

I think wiki quotes it at like 207.

...and can handle a lot more than the 200. Easily turbo'd under about 10psi withOUT an intercooler (see turbochargingdynamics.com), even if you don't turbo, you can chip it for another 10% powa, and with the right gearing the torque will get you moving like a freight train.

www.turbochargingdynamics.com. I bought the stage 1 kit for 3850 and ended up getting 290rwhp @ 7.5psi. No headgasket problems. Not to mention Todd Dehate is a great guy to work with. Very impressive technical customer support post-purchase. He's available almost anytime.

Fuckin loved the setup. burned the tires shifting in 3rd gear, chirped them shifting into 4th.
