    I would do this, but from what ive read the m50 does not really give that much gains hp/torque wise (mostly just newer technology and 'reliability.. I dont mind the m20 its reliable and easy enought to work on).

    If I could find one, i would do an m30 swap but the issue is finding one that isnt overpriced or local..

    I came across this site a while ago..
    You may be wondering what the best engine for your new or future E30 should be. Well here is a list for you to make a better informed decision. 318i (M42B18 conversion) 136 HP 172Nm Inline 4 engine stock 1.8 liter engine in the 318i. The fairly low weight of the engine makes the car


    And I noticed that the 2.7 eta based stroker seemed to yeild a lot more torque and hp.. but when I googled I found a dyno that said it hit 150whp. So I do not know what to believe, because last time I thought that my m20b25 was atleast 160whp with the chip.
