I know this May have been discussed at length separately but I have started acquiring parts and now need to make a decision, I have acquired a clean low mile 318is that I want to swap. There are many choices to get more power this is what's on my radar.
Refresh the M42 and throw a turbo on it. 200hp $2000
I have a nv M50 that I could turbo 3-400 hp approx $4000
s52 is now a tried and tested route that makes very reliable power and is more or less a plug and play with all of the info on prior swaps out there, on here. 250hp $3500
s54. Prices are coming down and it seems a lot more affordable. 330 hp out of the box stock, makes a great sound and is sexy. $5-6000
I have no interest in a V8 at all M30s are a great motor but are a little Stone Age for what I am trying to achieve.
