dont buy it
buy a 2,8m52 do all the bolt on mods,( use the search function for all the info) and drop that into your e30
you'll have about 230bhp

Christ, a 2.5 M52 is bad enough... but a 2.0L 
M42 rightness above 6500rpm, nobody can hear you scream

for the love of god... dont put that 2.0 in.. as kos says get the m52b28 ... m50 inlet, bbtb, map and shes good for 230bhp.... £700 for a 2.0 engine in my eyes is daylight robbery.
