S50B30 Tuning

[GT110]

Hi guys.

I have decided to go for some serious power mods for my M3 GT. All options are basically open, well.. almost all. Lets say that the price has a 15.000 euro roof.

What would you go for? turbo, twin turbo, supercharger, engine swap.

Im interested in hearing your opinions and also who I should buy it from.

So you would rule out a S62 swap?

[morerevsm3]

yes, would do LS-1/2 swap before doing S62 swap

Hey thats the cheap way to go, same (or more power) but not a BMW engine. Swapping a chevy into a BMW (this BMW at least) is not an option for me.

What do you guys think about The TwinTurbo system by DA, or some of the Supercharger systems out there?

i wouldn't trust any "DA kit" at all after the crap out there..maybe the only thing i'd get from them would be the piggyback (TSA), MAYBE, on seconds thoughts i'd rather buy PowerMod from Erik @ bavaria cars.
If i were you i'd do a custom kit, single turbo setup,666fabrication exh manifold, full motor build up, get something like a GT4088R, and make like 800whp+++, get a different driveshaft and axles,reinforce many other stuff etc.
that's my opinion

[GT110]

Im aiming at 450-500hp. More is less for me.

Custom kits are to much work for me since I am not a decent mechanic.

[morerevsm3]

pure pf as above, or www.vsmotor.com.no

do a search here on " mert " in FI section for info on DA (don't walk away, RUN!!!)

please dont swap your engine. your car is too big of a part of history. you are one lucky man to own that car.

[calypsoSA]

Oh no, here it starts again. S62 twin turbo not a possibility?

Too much power, too litle reliability.

Please trade me cars. Then swap away...calypsoSA is right man. :( Death to an M3GT :bawling

[GT110]

Swapping engines is not such a bad thing, as long as its a BMW M motor that goes in. I was thinking of putting an S85 in, or S65 but maybe later in the life of the car. My car started out as a GT, but with ceramic brakes, all the suspention replaced and more.. its really getting closer to beeing a BMW M3 GT3 :D

No, i agree with the engine swap. Like i said in the other forum, you could always up the old engine back in if you wanted to put the car back to stock. But it doesnt look like its ever gonna go that way.

[NicoyAKinG]

i always wanted to do a S62 N/A swap.... but thats alot of money that i dont have :(

how much power can you get out of the 3.0L? 270 rwhp? maybe 300 rwhp?

I have over 270rwhp now on dyno dynamics in shootout mode, so close to 300rwhp on dynojet, still with stock cams etc, there is an S50B30 over here that would have at least 350rwhp on dyno dynamics NA, it has all titanium internals and motec stand alone etc and runs 9500rpm though

hello gt110, is your name Svein? sorry for going off topic but i'm new to this forum and can't quite find my way...
do you have the twinturbo from da motorsport? Mert told me you had it but with the wrong intercooler.
and i have ordered the kit, it took almast a year to get the second box with parts but still not complete. can you get in contact with me?
thanks, Rene
