it has a downing atlanta using a uprated 3.4 pulley
carbon fibre viper induction kit, a samco intake bellows, a non return valve to stop the boost bleeding back and a bigger bored throttle body!

now lets see yours! :biggrin:

Why no shield on the intake?

its an enclosed system!

Guess I couldn't tell in those pics :)

Video. I thought it was tire spin but it was my 305ftlb clutch that was slipping.

with having tried both sueprcharged and now turbo'd have you ever been tempted to do both! :biggrin: now that would be something!

Sorry it sounds cool to do both but they don't work like that or work together well. It would be a total waste in my opinion.

Turbo is the best in my opinion but is harder to install and tune.

I seen a super/turbocharged e46 at Bimmerfest a few years ago. It was way overdone and mostly a "showcar" thing. I agree with Johnboy, if you want more HP and your motor/wallet can take it, just run a bigger turbo.

i saw the car Jesse is speaking about in a Eurotuner magazine. looked cool...but left me wondering how well it ran.

i'm pretty certain there is more than 2 of us with FI setups on here! now dont be shy and get those pics up! :wink:

2.8L M50/M52 engine. Forged lightweight pistons, stronger/lighter conrods, o-ringed, copper gasket, GT30 and a few other things lols
