Re: What e30 Should I Get Next

Big bore throttle bodies and 3.5 injectors

Can I have informed opinions on M30 3.5 throttle bodies and injectors, do they fit into a M20 2.5 ? is it worth doing and power gains? I'm looking for more beans on a budget, so don't want to shell out £180 on a zone big bore throttle body, will others fit? Also has anyone ever put 3.5 injectors i...

Not sure if power at the coil as not tested yet. I'm going to remove the coil off my convertible and try that tomorrow.

Green stuff with zimmerman cross drilleds work well for us on track but then we've only got 170 bhp to reign in, your going to need something a bit more heavy duty I expect !
