I think this budget is a good effort, government have managed to to cut alot of taxes in the right places without having to cut funding to vital things and without causing too much hardship. Bill English has earnt his moneys worth here imo.

318i factory, wanting to turbo or supercharge
pureboiracer replied to beaming83's topic in Performance
back in the 70s F1 used bmw motors, cant remember what 4 cyl motor it was but it was one of them, and they were slutting 1200hp, so one of the 4cyl motors is strong enough, i suspect you would still have to replace virtually all the internals to start putting out some real power though. -

not saying you cant make a 4cyl beast, just saying it will be alot cheaper to get the same power out of a bigger motor.. -
318i factory, wanting to turbo or supercharge
pureboiracer replied to beaming83's topic in Performance
a rather common quote floats around this topic... no infact 2.... 1 "reaserch, research, research." and 2 "if you have to ask then you probably dont know enough to be doing it." IMO a 318 is a bit of a small motor to be creating into a "beast" what year is your car? you will have to mess around with the computer, or go aftermarket computer, you will almost definaly need to do several internal things, depending on how much boost you want to run. at a min you should fit metal head gasket and stronger head bolts. you wont be able to make a "beast" with stock internals.. it will just blow up. power costs money. lots of it, so if i were you i would do lots of reasearch on overseas forums, google, etc, price up the turbo kit, find out what was done with engine management, and also find out what was done to the motor, then price up the required parts and double it to give you an idea of how much you will need to spend. also note that increase in power requires upgraded brakes, suspension etc. -

when you say clean do you wanna take stuff out of it? or just make it look a little tidier? if you dont wanna chop bits out then just pull the dash out and have a look to see where you can reroute stuff.
