I'm thinking of a super-charged m20 and in particular, a kit from Rotrex specifically aimed at the e30 325. They reckon power outputs of around 280bhp.

Has anyone got any knowledge or experience of Rotrex or a super-charged m20 please?

Contact fritz bits in Greenham near Wellington in Somerset, ask for Dave. He's known as 'randomdave325' on here. Also 'Ant' at A-tech will be able to help.

Can anyone suggest how to test if the boot lights are staying on with the boot shut?

I spent some time looking into this - expect to spend £4K+ unless you fabricate brackets etc yourself.

Looks ideal. Might have to ask the bank manager.
