thanks, yer going in to a 318, thing is its a very mint shell and tbh log book will still show 318,

will the 318i box handle 200bhp?

ok ill look up danthe any rough idea on prices

ok, so spent the night searching, and reading though posts here and on e3024v.com and goggling things, and hopefully now have a complete list on what is needed for a smooth m50 swap can some one correct me were im wrong or add, e36 325 engine , ecu ending 413? and loom e30 centre bearing from a face...

lol there you go i was 100% wrong, dunno why i didn't suggest a air leak!!!

defo the flywheel, although im not expert and starting out with the long track of knowledge needed to swap an m50 in. only thing you could do is try raising the idle with your throttle pedal first to find a idling point. then adjust your throttle under the bonnet to suit, id say you would have to ru...
