          my last e30 had a cam and rebuil head, chip, miller MAF, and a 4.10 LSD, full intake/exhaust.

          it ripped up to about 140. car was fun but felt it met the limits with FI. however, it was fun and more than enough power to have a blast in.,

          now my m50 vert...well i have a plan for that motor, but i dont want to spoil anything...cough cough 3.0 cough cough cough

              OMG!! My 20 year old BMW 325 doesn't feel as fast as a modern BMW 335!!

              OMG!! My 20 year old Vette doesn't feel as fast a modern vette!!

              OMG!! My 20 year old Porsche 911 doesn't feel as fast as a modern 911!!

              Should I sell my old car? Should I start a thread about it?

              I think I should....

                To be honest, I do love my job.

                I have ridden in some of the fastest cars in the entire world, so at the end of the day when I get into my e30 it does feel slow... slower than dirt. Earlier in this thread someone said to slow down and think, definitely a good piece of advice for myself.

                My car does handle great for being an older BMW, it sounds amazing and it does run great...here and there, I just always want more or something better and that's just how I am. Unfortunately, I'm not in the position to buy a Lambo or Bugatti but I sure do have the itch to push my car for more power, a lot more. I've always loved turbos, always loved BMW's. This e30 is my baby and I want to get the most out of it, I guess it's just a matter of committing to either a swap or turbo which is why I made this thread.

                After a lot of thinking, I'd love to finish my clutch build and start piecing together a turbo kit. I guess we'll just see how that goes, but thanks again to everyone for the help so far. Keeps me thinking about what to do next...

                  I'm sorry for posting on Rev, shouldn't have done it in the first place.

                    WTF is a clutch build? It is a clutch and a pressure plate, not eleventybillion pieces that need replacing.

                      I think you need to post some vids. With having : Magnaflow Exhaust - I.E. Headers - I.E. 272 Cam - HD Rockers - I.E. Strut Bar - 3.73 LSD and a miller maf kit your car shouldn't be to slow along with a rebuilt engine.

                          I'll record some videos this weekend with my go pro, and then put them up online. I don't know what is up with my car but I feel as if it shouldn't be this slow after all the work that has been put into it.

                            We should run em, I think my car is getting slow lately.

                            But go for a turbo M50.

                            Didn't see you at that car thing in the Gaslamp on Sunday.

                              I'll do some videos, right now I may be leaning towards turbo M20 because of how easy it sounds haha, I just need to break open that bottom end and make sure it's ok...

                              Yeah I was supposed to go, but I had something come up. We brought out a Gallardo and something else... can't remember.

                                Are you slower than this?
