    is there enough interest....

    ...to warrant the production of a twinscrew SC "kit", for use on the S/M 50/52 series engines in the E30 chassis?

    currently, no one is offering an out of the box "kit" for these engines, aside from E36 applications, which are usable with some modifications, but nothing that's ready to roll.


    i'm enjoying the hell out of the S52 swap, but it definitely leaves me wanting more power, and i dont want to get into head/cam work.

    the AA twinscrew seems like a natural upgrade...

    to me, at least.. :D



    so, anyone else have more balls than brains?

    i want to put the pressure on AA to get something together.

    The AA kit for the most part is a slam dunk on your swapped car. The only real obstacle that you will have to contend with is the plumbing for the IC. Not a big deal really...

    A SC will only satisfy you for so long and its only a matter of time before you will want even more power(ask me how I know). Go turbo.

      There has to be a time where when your running a 1.xx gear rear end and still spinning the tires when you realize that you may have too much power on your hands;)

        I am thinking that if like that much power, you need to go into politics.

                  Getting a TS for my s52 is my ultimate goal. I just wanna hit over 400hp then I will be happy. I don't want a monster with like 23987498327 hp.

                      lol, that depends on what exactly they have under the hood.. they are turbo, so it's fairly easy to get more power out of them.

                        I like the idea of SC its more power but you can still use it as a DD. TC's are good too but you can just have too much power sometimes, i mean really, whos gonna have a TC in a car that doesnt put out at least an extra 200 hp. No one wants a tuned down TC that gives you 50 hp.

                              exactly...

                              i plan to keep using the E30 as my DD for a while, so turbo might be a bit much.
