Turbo for my 1995 M3?

[reece30719]

Hey guys, I have a 1995 M3 right now and I was wondering if I should get a turbo kit. Right now it has 140k miles but everything is running fine. I want to get some more power with a turbo kit but at the same time I’m worried it will blow up the motor and I really don’t want to have to rebuild it. What do you guys think.

Do you need to be CARB legal?

Yes it is a daily driver, I just want some more power

So…that is a little different than “Yes, I live in California and need to pass CARB inspection.”

Turbos are awesome but won’t pass CARB. A good system is about $6k in parts and 12 hours of labor. I turbocharged my 99M3 in 2010 and love the power. Dinan made a supercharger kit that was CARB approved. A member named Braymond141 knows them inside out and refurbishes used kits. Send him a PM. It’s not turbo power but there is more potential than bolt on naturally aspirated power. I ran a supercharger from 2006-2010.
