[specjazavani 0]

Hello, I have a mint 1997 e36 320i I believe it has a m52b20 in it. Wanting to go bigger engine and want any advice anyone can give me in regards to this conversion. what is best engine choice. I am wanting as much HP as possible and would consider rebuild and supercharge engine already in car. What is involved if i supercharged? what is involved in putting bigger engine in? what engine should i look at? any help appreciated thank you

how much money do you have?

if you want something simple and effective, an m52b28 would be a good choice.

if you want a little more go than that an m series motor could be an idea (s50 or s52)

if you want evan more then your looking towards a v8 (an s62 would be awesome)

look on youtube for cars that have already had one of these engines and pick and choose between them

dont know much about supercharging so ill just leave it there

Step 1: Sell car

Step 2: Buy same model car with larger capacity engine. (328i / M3 )

Step 3: Enjoy.

^^^^^^ What he said

Any other option is going to cost way more & be a lot of unnecessary work

Go for a HSV 6.0 Ls2 Converson. Nice low V8, lighter than BMW 4.4 V8.
