Hello everyone! I am new to the forums and probably one of the youngest on here doing a m52 turbo swap. Just a little previous information about the car: It previously had a m50 in it swapped by the previous owner. The head gasket/head cracked so we said let's do something new! We found the m52 at a local parts recycling shop. The engine was reported to have 144k miles on it with near perfect compression so we took up the offer!
We had the idea of boosting it so we started to order all performance gaskets, studs, etc. You can see our progress by following along our youtube channel. I will be posting 1-2 videos a week at least about what we are doing. We have a majority of the parts ordered so it should be a fun ride!
I've loved this car so much and have worked a ton to get it to the place it is today. It's going to be an exciting one!
Here is episode 1 one the removal of the m50, the second will show us painting the engine bay and third will begin with the build specs.

Few build pics so far:
