After driving a ridiculously over powered turbo m20 for 4 years let me tell you, it too eventually gets old. I am looking for a 2002 to build an n/a n m10 for.

Not looking to have stupidly overpowered.

a stock NA s52 makes more then enough power for daily driving and track use. actually anything over 250hp and is past the average drivers capabilities. unless youre looking for bragging rights. a cammed m52 (in a e30) was past my abilities as a driver and im a pretty damn good one.

I would argue that stock M20 power levels will get most "average" drivers in trouble in a RWD car, especially an old one like an E30 that doesn't have understeer built into the chassis.

Like you, I'm not worried about my driving competency. Well actually I am, I'm used to going fast on vehicles that weigh 2300lbs less and have just as much HP as a stock M20 or more, and only have two wheels.

M52 turbo. Cheap motor. WAAAY better VE than the M20 so you can run low boost and still make big power on just a HG. Plus you can get a remote tune from TRM so no need for standalone.

Just for reference, my friend just dyno'd his turbo e36. All it has is a HG and ARP Bolts, 9:1 compression after gasket. T3/4 turbo and a TRM tune. Made 333whp/328tq at 14psi with conservative tune.


Turbo 24v > Turbo m20 > N/A 24v imo.

s52 supercharged would be alot of fun too and not a bad DD.
