m52 swap question

[heathy325]

hi im currently running a 325i and will be doing the m52 swap soon as ive got all the shopping list sorted but a couple of question before i go ahead first one is the obvious one, im after more power but as i have never driven an e30 with a m52 in so was wondering how much more noticeable the difference is and is it worth the swap will probably be doing the m50 manifold conversion too, secondly is there much of a difference between the single or double vanos engines and which one is best?and lastly is there anyone who will do the loom conversion for me so its just a plug and play job im capable of doing it myself but to be honest if someone else can supply one it saves dicking about lol any help would be great cheers

danthe does the looms i have seen pics of ones he has done and his price seems spot on , i put an m50 in my old cab i didnt drive it too much before selling it but it was a vast improvement over the m20 2.5 it has previous .

M52's are noticeably stronger than an m20, especially with the m50 inlet.

You want the single Vanos lump.

DanThe does looms as well as modified manifolds.

PM Dan, been a while since I bought mine. Well priced and good quality.
