    Seems risky to run never less than 20 psi from an 8374 on a stock block M54. Maybe on a built engine.

    4094r is still a great choice on these engines, the gtx35r is also very impressive.

    Any of the 6x66 precisions flow very well on the m5x series.

    From everything ive been reading the efr turbos look to be very good but id hate to spend all that on a turbo and be on the hook for 650-700 dollars in bov and wastegate if you aren't happy and want to switch to a different turbo.

    it is very possible to build the block. i'm just asking all available information.
    conversion from supercharger is costly so i'm not gonna do it just to go from 400hp to 450 or 500. it has to be serious power. remember e39 is a lot heavier than e36.

    I would not want a turbo or manifold for which I could not regulate boost. That is why I changed from an 8374 EWG on a twinscroll manifold to an IWG EFR with EWG as well.

    hey guys
    i finally started my project.
    i made a custom twinscroll manifold and i'd like to know what you think. it fits well so i'm going to add some proper collectors and make it from stainless steel.20190512_150403.jpg20190511_150457.jpg
