Cheers chu, so I need the is e30 lump, what sort of psi can you safely go with a turbo conversion on the standard internals!? Wat I want really is my tourer to be a weekend run around and then get a 2 door coupe with a 4 cylinder turbo lump as track day beast on a trailer that the tourer can cart around!!

The towing capacity of an E30 is too low to be able to tow another E30 on a trailer.WEEMANDANBRITTON wrote:4 cylinder turbo lump as track day beast on a trailer that the tourer can cart around!!
