I'm looking to chuck a cam in my 325i as well as a turbo at some point but was after some recommendations. I also wondered if a 535i cam might go or make a difference

I don't think that a M30 cam will eaven fit the M20 head, the M30 is physicly a much bigger engine and known as the 'Big six'.

Ant at Atech would be worth a call as he specialises in turbo conversions and deals with CatCams, he gets some very impressive results too.

Hi there although you can get cams that are designed to get the best from turbo engines, stick with the standard one as it is much more suited to a F.I engine than a hot N.A cam.

The best bit is you probably have one already :)
