    Default Anyone have pics or info on E34 with an M50 motor that is turbed?

    Looking to turbo my E34 wagon with an M50 motor. I wanted to see any pics on this or info on this setup on a E34. I tried a search and came up empty


    Thanks in advance

    The only guy I've seen who mentioned he had a turbo'ed M50 engine was a guy name Myron, but he had a supercharger on his car. You might try e-mailing him at myron.marcyniak@worldnet.att.net Don't know if this is still a good e-mail address for him and I don't know if he has the car anymore. He was trying to sell it a while back. I questioned him about selling the supercharger separately, but he wasn't interested.

    Here's another board where you might try your question.

    Take a look here:

    Same engine as your E34. Same block only better ECU on your wagon for the fatter torque. Diff is also different. Go for 260-270HP at modest 7 PSI boost with intercooler.

    I was looking at that but I have no space for an intercooler. Maybe a air to water intercoolerlike the tcd setups
