    It's the only sadness that brings happiness. The efforts at happiness without turbo just led to a string of naturally aspirated cars that were boring and now you are back where you started but with more knowledge how to turbo an E36.

    Incorrect . I enjoyed my s54 swapped car a great deal. Very usable power, and super reliable . E30 325i s52 swap tons of fun. E30 m3(still own) fun car to drive , and it snaps necks every it's seen.

    Not sure I'll turbo this car. I do plan on hitting up an HPDE in May

    I'm not saying it won't happen, but if I did go that route I would never go to a power level of 600-700whp. Most likely 320-360whp.

    320-360 is pointless for that type of time and money. Just stuff a s54 in it.
    450 is minimum IMO if going through the hassle. At 450tq is where it starts to stuff you in the seat in 5th gear as well. That's the magic #.

    550/500 is a good limit. I probably enjoyed my car most overall at that power level. Stock driveshaft, 188 diff, 5 speed works fine, no fancy motor parts needed other than HG and studs. But these cars are now 10 years older than when I started down the FI road and will need more work and be less reliable just due to age. Don't drag race and less stuff breaks that you have to replace with less comfortable stuff.

    Looks like one of the NE turbo cars had some fun at the track. He did very well for first time out.

    Do I have to lower the subframe to get the 210 diff out?

    I took it out without lowering the subframe. Wasn't an easy task though. http://i1373.photobucket.com/albums/...psaygfjnm7.jpg Can I grind down this hump on the bottom of the diff? http://i1373.photobucket.com/albums/...pslwyyeidi.jpg

    Also I think my diff cover has a hair line crack on the top right side.
