Re: A question about boosted BMW's

go to e30tech and r3vlimited and read up in the FI sections. I know that the m20 is capable of holding 700rwhp, however 250 is much more attainable ON THE stock block. Show me an e30 hitting 700 on the stock block, PLEASE.

I never said "stock block"

but the block isnt the weak part in an m20... its the crappy internals (pistons , crank and rods) and bad oil delivery

Ok gotcha, but in my post I said that you could get 250 rwhp without touching the internals of the motor. I'm not trying to be a jackass or anything. I've heard a bit about your car and it looks pretty respectible. You want to pm me some info about your set up? I'm out of the e30 scene now, however I'd still be pretty interested as to the details regarding your setup.
