wow..I've never seen a E28 with a M10..
Well I'm from the USA..but that looks small under the hood.

Nice score tho!! wow.

My brother used to have a track-prepped 535iS manual. M30 with 210hp.
It was LOUD, the suspension was bone-jarring, and it was no slouch. Fun car! 8)

An 80s chevy 305 has about 140bhp so that probably ain't a good plan ! :(
Obviously for an extra £1000 the same engine could make 300bhp but that would surely be a waste in a landfill e28 !

Hi

Tunning a m10 to get 100bhp/l N/A is about 5k, the easy upgrade is to buy an m30 as it bolts in on factory parts, most were auto but the m10 box will fit, but a lo-fi m10 turbo e28 now that would be cool.

i just fancy doing something different hence the yank route one of my other mates with yanks is pushing 750bhp but he did spend £7500 to build it he did already have a £4000 supercharger though :cry:
