Title: Newbie Questions
Post by: Garrett on March 22, 2007, 08:30:06 PM
I'm looking buying one these cool and rare cars, a 318iS. I was wondering if I could put my SC12 super charger from an 88 MR2 on there and how hard it would be and what the gains would be. Also, I can have a friend make a turbo manifold, what is a good place to get flanges and what is a good size turbo for the M42? Also, what do the most of you achieve for gas mileage and list your mods. I tried searching but I got errors. Also, what is the point of a 5 lug conversion? I know of a few absolutly ruined E36 at junkyards  I can get swap parts off of.
More questions will be coming as I go.
