M51 d24 Diesel intake manifold, turbo & intercooler.

[turk]

Just wondering if anyone knows if the diesel turbo, inlet manifold etc are any good of an upgrade for petrol engines?

If any good I also have an opportunity to buy the complete TD engine.

If anyone can point me to any threads that might have info on upgrades.

Will the manifold fit the likes of an S50?

cheers

Seen people use the td exhaust manifold on low power turbo m50 builds but they don't flow particularly well. I wouldn't be bolting one to an s50 that's for sure

Is the inlet manifold worth nabbing?

I always assumed the turbo was too small for a petrol engine of similar capacity

The the turbo is pincy, but the inlet manifold is solid so I though it might be worth shelving for a future project.
