but I always feel the need to go faster :evil2. I'm torn between selling my recently swapped m30 525 which has 160k miles on it, new paint, has been in two accidents but not a salvaged title, ok interior, all around IMO a wonderful looking car. In place of her I would buy a '95 530 swapped with an 4.0 that has 70k miles on it from my father. He however didnt do the swap and bought it that way. It has the usual dings and dents but has a perfect interior.It may however have a oil pressure problem, which is most likely a sensor but I havent looked into it.
:( I just want them both but dont have the money
What should I do...:help in need of some others opinions for this not so easy decision.

the grass is always greener. keep the m30, save for a turbo, then race your father for pinks and have two cars!

M60B40 would be my choice.

You're going to get more horsepower for less $ with a turbo 535.

6psi should do the trick :devillook

If this wasn't my daily driver I'd want Redfives old supercharger just for the novelty factor

How hard is it to setup his supercharger? I've thought about it, but don't really know much about it

I've always liked this idea but don't have the guts (or skill). Not too many around from what I've seen.

Pretty much a bolt on. If you've got skills you can get it done in about a weekend, if you've got talent you can get it done in a day. PM him, it's really a full boogie setup, very nice.
