Want heat, AC, Leather and comfort,
Doing research I will need 1 Hp for every 6Lbs of car,
So 500 Horses says about 3000 lbs should do,
Granted a 540 wagon is about 3500 Lbs which brings me past a reasonable weight per Hp figure, I will need either more HP out of a 4.4 V8.
OR a 3 series car as the 318ti which is a measly 2700 Lbs.

This is a project in the works and I should be ready to start in the winter,
For now gathering info is needed,
I see the Dinan 4.4s with super chargers generating near 400 Hp,
So a good turbo will make better power and Water meth may get me there,
Since I can't afford the V12,
Any other suggestions?
