M3 e36 crankshaft info for Turbo-Atmo appilication.

[rigas]

Guys I need your help.

I am plan to rebuilt my engine for Turbo or Atmosphere development.

I see that in other manufactures for e.x Mitsubishi, Subaru and others, some R&D brands made steel billet crankshafts.

Our crankshafts 3.0 and 3.2 engines is forged? (sorry if I said something wrong )

How much power can hold?

If i want to choose Turbo or Atmo tune i can choose for con-rods and pistons many brands.

But for crankshaft I can find one to made a billet one.

So our machines don't need one or I search wrong.

Finally my choose to pistons is JE and for con-rods Arrow.

All the best,
Andreas

s50 crankshafts can take 1500bhp,so i have been told,

We're assuming that your engine is a Euro version,
correct.
Our US S50 crank is not forged
and I don't truly know about the euro crank.
Making a crank is unnecessary
as you'll most likely not creat enough power to break it.

The M52 and S52 in the states are FORGED.
