    A long overdue thread.
    This thread will be designated for the Boosters and soon to be Boosted of New England. There are many very knowledgeable gurus in your backyard that thrive on force feeding air via. Turbo or supercharger.
    These are a great bunch of guys that have very quickly become some of my closest friends. Our love for BMWS and modifying them is almost beyond belief. So with this thread we can locally unite whether it be to bounce ideas, seek advice, give recommendations, lend a helping hand, or just get together for beers.

    Looking foreword to meeting you all.

    What kind of flares are they? May be interested, it could take care of my rust and traction issue in one shot.

    I just know of the four turbo cars and maybe a few supercharged cars, and think there are probably more, so I am curious as to the actual numbers myself. Hopefully this thread will flush out some new ones so we can share resources and knowledge.

    I shall get a list going, and edit them into the original post
    It may help someone down the line with similar setups.
    Maybe we could just give a short description of engine, setup etc.
    Something like this

    I also might need help with the install and pretty much everything since I'm just diving into the F/I world, any help would be greatly appreciated, and compensated. I just won't be around until March-oh and I grew up in CT so I think I count.

    Won't be running them, I'm 5 lug now from an E30 M3 set up. This was my remaining 4 lug car so I converted it. To make life easier, They are for sale if interested.

    Car will be S52, C38-81 stage II with Meth spray. Thinking it's just gonna be lacking traction with a 3.46 45% lock up diff. So debating using my 2.97 to get some gear out of it with a ZF320. Been looking in Germany for a 6 speed but they are still fetching too much to be worth it at the moment.
