Alright chaps
In the middle of fitting a eaton m112 charger to my m30 cab.
Got it all mounted, just run into a problem with the filter housing, being with the charger bolted in, there's no space for it.
Is there any filter housings on other m30'd cars that will work??

e28 535i one is downward facing, and has oil cooler take-offs which I'm sure you'll be needing! There is a bolt hole that needs to be blanked off though, it's all documented on tinternet.

Mmm supercharged m30! :cool:

Cheers for that. I knew I've seen one but could remember what on.
I'll have a look around for 1.
Yes, the chargers been a bit of a pain to get on and work stuff out but its coming together now, just sourcing parts I need
Should be fun though!
