Hi guys just wondering what sort of 1/4 mile times the m52 are getting, couple of us r thinking of going to the BMW show at sant pod (sept) and I've never done the strip before, they have been a few times and I'm thinking of going in the e30 but don't wanna get showed up lol, pretty standard at the mo really should have m50 manifold by time we go.
Cheers guys
1/4 mile times

With an m52 2.8 with a few extras like the m50 inlet , depending on gearing you should comfortably dip into the 14's

A sorted 2.8 conversion should be pulling low 14's
My best with a 2.8 with cams was 13.8 at Santa Pod

You should easily get into the 14's,
The best I got in the tourer with a standard 2.8 on a 3.64 diff, was a 13.9
