Does anyone know if m3 bodies fit an m50 I seem to recall someone saying they do but I'm unsure

An adaptor plate is needed, also an S50 or remote oil filter housing, and not to mention, lots and lots of faffing

thanks guys must of had my wires crossed. already got the s50 oil filter housing and stand alone just thought it might be a nice way to build a better turbo inlet manifold but it looks like its more hastle than its worth

Just get some S50 throttle bodies still attached to the rest of the engine to put in :wink:



A built M52 on itbs would be pretty cool in an E30 however!
