    Damn! that seems high?

    Is there a good way to calculator HP by PSI? Or is this something the tuner will determine?

    I really, really don't want to have to yank the motor out anytime soom. Not until i find a spare block atleast

    I thought so too.
    The reason I'm building a motor right now is cause I thought I'd be happy at 400. Then 450. Then 500. Now I want 7-800. You'll see... just wait.

    I'd like to quote you for posts in the future.

    Like an addiction, to basically anything, your brain gets use to the experience and you will need more and more to get the same rush. A boost controller with a few settings can help prolong the inevitable of needing more boost by turning it down for a while, like in the rain.

    500 for m52 i think may be pushing it I'm going to have to make myself happy with around 320 to 380, 380 is more than double stock output. 500 seems to be the sweet spot for most people

    If we told you before, you would not have believed us. We told Raji, and he did not believe us.

    Anyone know where I can find part numbers for a good price?

    These are the bolts that connect the driveshaft to the differential flange

    I could be blowing smoke out of my arse. But I've tuned a couple of Apexi Power FC nissan SR20's with 8.5:1 compression, that resulted in approximately 10 WHP/lb of boost. I would imagine our BMW engines, (most of us having 9.0-10.0:1 compression would net in the ball park of 12-13 WHP/lb of boost. Don't quote me on it, but there's my educated guessing. lol
