    turbo verts...

    So i cant decide if i want to turbo the vert or just a s5x swap...

    Ive been and driven turbo cars, and damn i do i love it!!

    My main purpose for the vert is a low car, maybe stanced?, but i also want to be able to have a good amount of power when i hit it for fun. It wont be a daily driver.

    What are your opinions on a turbo vert? is it to much?

          "stance"

          I'd say turbo personally.

            i thought about the m60, but i dont like that numbers show roughly 13 seconds even which is almost the same as the s5x
            Even tho, the torque on the v8!

            BUt thats what i was think but a m52 turbo, i just dont know about it because of the body flex and if i will even be able to use that power anywhere or if it would feel right in that car.

              Why does 1/4 time matter in a vert? its for sounding cool, having fun, and looking hawt.

                  it doesnt. That is what i am using as a baseline to be set at. I obviosuly have not driven a s5x car or a m60 for that matter.. but i have driven other cars that are roughly 13 seconds(e46 m3) and i am looking for something a little faster
                  So the question is will i be losing to much of the e30 feeling when i have a good amount of power with the turbo?

                    If it doesnt matter why do you keep hammering the speed question lol.

                    With proper suspension and tires you wont notice any loss in feeling.

                      VERT!

                      You want it to sing. You want it to have an amazing exhaust note. You want the bellows of the gods and cleopatra's glorious orgasmic moan wrapped into a single angelic noise to be emanating from those tailpipes. Something the M/S5x simply cannot, and never really will do.

                      Hence my recommendation of the M60. Beautiful, wondrous sound. More than fast enough. And seriously, if you have a sub 13 second e30 cabriolet, you're probably just going to kill yourself in it. They're not meant for the ponies.

                      Beautiful noises + fit your desires: turbo M20, M30 (NA or F/I), M60, or go for the absolute gold. NA S38.

                      I'll bet you Mila Kunis's hymen that if you had an S5x vert, next to an M60 vert, rolling the same exact times and looking the exact same, you'd want that M60 sound.
                      And the same could be said for all of the ones I said above.







                      Think about it.
