questions S50b30 Turbo

[griffen]

guys a few questions If I was crazy enough to do this.
Anyone know if my drivetrain, diff, propshaft, clutch etc would be able to handle this power, on the clutch I am thinking definately not.

Bottom end.

I am sure with a GT Dual Ball Bearing turbo with ceramic turbine it will boost a bit earlier not that it matters most of these guys with proper setups rev 8000+ rpm

I think it would work yes , but rather get an SC ? to maintain that throttle response and what M cars are loved for , that reving engine . But then again I dunno much about these things :rollsmile:

A stock drivetrain can handle extra power , but at say 40 % extra power and a few TLGP pull offs your clutch is fried . Gearboxes seem ok . Side shafts and universal joints can give up the ghost .

it really depends on what you going to use the car for and how much power you want to make...

if you running slicks and drag racing even stock power will cause issues... if you just taking the car on a few laps from time to time it is way less harsh on the car...

like Raybimmer says drive lines are ok if you not being very harsh on them...

what you will definitely need to do is reinforce the rear subframe and shock towers... it is a very good idea to strengthen the front also while you at it...
