just wondered if e36 m3 throttle bodies will fit on a m50 engine from a 525i, if so what is involved in fitting them, is it plug and play or a little more complicated? thanks

They wot fit directly Heads are different , you would need to make up an adaptor plate to match bolt pattern and to space them out a bit . Not sure your ecu would like the Itbs with orginal map , .
I looked at it as I have a spare set but didnt bother because I am going turbo , so not so much of an advantage for me .

Massive ballache to end up with no result at the end. The TBs are way to big tbh for a start..
