Hi all,

just wondering if a low mount turbo setup is possible for m50's in e30's. if its not that hard to do ill skip on ordering the a/c parts (looking for an excuse not to fix the aircon lol).

thanks

Yes its possible, turbo would have to go at the front of the engine due to the steering coupling, the other problem is that the compressor outlet will be right in front of the engine mounting arm, however you could make a new arm that goes around the downpipe.
