I would absolutely keep the M20 in this car. Pull it, clean it up, re-work the head, add cam, add BavAuto headers & exhaust, chip it and drive the tits off of it. M20s are so awesome. 24v swaps are ghey.
I hate modded emtree, I hate modded cawrz, I hate jdm, I hate swag, I hate stanceyolokids, I hate bags (on cars), I hate stuff that is slowz, I hate tires.

I already have half of the parts needed haha! Ideally I want to swap this car and keep the M20 and do a full, out of car rebuild for boost to slap in another e30.
The only real reason to swap from a M20 to any 24v is if the M20 is junk. Doesnt sound like yours is. Car looks great, I love the color.
The engine does seem healthy and M20's are known to last a while. The thing is, it has it's leaks and at >250k it could take only the smallest thing to ruin it. I'm thinking that it could be nice to take a 24v engine, completely refresh it out of the car, clean everything up and toss it in.
If I was currently in Colorado I would probably be in the middle of an m30 swap haha. There was a 535i E34 for sale for $500 with a running engine and manual transmission...

Honestly I built it just to have a place to sit and listen to Hotline Bling on repeat.

If I knew about that I would be in Colorado now picking it up and attempting to drive it home on a trip permit to strip and put the engine in my e28.
