I appreciate the help.

Thats exactly what I did. My 325E has 176k miles and I put a turbo on in without doing any internals and its running great. It also only cost me about $900

Oh wow thats awesome man! Do i HAVE to do anything else aftermarket like fuel pump, fuel pressure regulator, or timing? Oh and do you think it would be a good idea to change the timing belt and water pump while I'm at it?

My timing belt was done not too long ago so I didnt, but its very easy to while youre in there. I have 12:1 FMU and 24lb injectors, then I just fiddled with the AFM for a while to get it running good. Where are you located?

they will get the job done for a daily driver that you want to have fun in i have bought the demon kit off ebay just to try it out and i must say on my e30 the lil thing packs a punch and it is pretty reliable, just reinforce the manifold welds and get good oil lines/piping couplers
