E36 M3s What Mods 4 Turbo

How much boost would you have to run on a E36 M3 (with a mid size turbo) to get around 400HP ATW and what types of mods would you need to do to make it wun well.

Well I believe for that kind of power you could do it with a basic kit from TT or Active Autowerkes. Basically they consist of a gt35r and a headgasket with all of the piping, tuning, intercooler, and fuel to support it.


Check out the build in my sig. We are going for a little more power than that but it will give you an idea on what you need to do.

It can be done pretty easily.... Its all about good tuning and fuel.
A gt30 or 35r, along with proper fuel support, tune, exhaust, clutch..... ETC will get you your goal. Boost pressure will go up with support mods. Its as simple as that. I would personally do as said, get a better HG and studs, lower that CR a tad, and have some fun.
