I remember a couple of years ago someone on bimmerforums was selling an s14 itb and an adapter plate to make them work on an M42/M44. Wish I had bought it, he only wanted around $400.

I believe that swap would have the reverse effect compared to doing the M50 manifold.

The E30 manifold was geared for more lowerend torque, while the E36 manifold is better breathing.

I don't believe the M47 crank has to be machined to work. Gizmo from bfc put his in an M44 block, and I don't recal him needing custom work on the crank.

I did read all the posts, the tough physical stuff is done for us if they were to sell the kit sans tuning. I never said it would be cheap or easy but it is a possibility. You just make it sound...

Tuning isn't necessarily the hardest part of a supercharger. Belt alignment and manifold are pretty hard to get right.

Without tuning, if someone were to buy the kit they could tune it themselves...

They let the engine breath much easier. Really only beneficial if you're reving very high and the engine is losing air with the current intake manifold.

Without proper tuning and cam profiles,...

It's powder sprayed on, that coats the metal. Then when baked it bonds to the metal. It's pretty damn scratch resistant. It's not a paint, it doesn't flake off. In a way the powdercoat is now a...

Independent throttle bodies.

Are these fully custom or based off of the S14/S42 throttle bodies?

I really doubt it's dead. They have done quite a bit of R&D and designing to just kill it this late.

Give it time guys, I doubt the DASC was put together overnight.
