N02 trumps both when used properly!

'When used properly' being the key words.

But from a day-to-day standpoint, NO2 isn't very practical. I'd stick to forced induction when it comes to daily drivers.

But I have no complaints with a 4.0L V8, either.

Any new pics or vids?

**LasVegasE38** · 04-16-2011, 01:28 PM

It is a little disappointing to see people try to rationalize NOT doing this swap. If everyone always took the easy way around things, then nothing extraordinary would ever get done.

There was a post earlier asking what the point was when you can just get a supercharger for less money.....

Iceman, I don't think you caught my earlier post in the thread.

**tekazgtr1984** · 04-17-2011, 02:39 PM

Sure you can supercharge the M62 for less money. But how much more badass is a S62 swap with a 6-speed mated to it? If money's a determining factor, then the choice is obvious. But I'd take the S62/6spd any day.

Hell, even the S62 mated to a steptronic 5HP30 with a paddle shifter mod would just boss!
