Does anyone have any info on where to get a normally aspirated car turbo-charged?Any fabricators anywhere.Talking about a certain 325i that needs a bit more poke+loads of spare cash.(not my car BTW)

I wouldn't do it, but then you didn't ask that did you. Do you want just the kit, or the whole lot fitting aswell.

[ELMO Owen]

Dunno,just whatever it takes to fit it.
Poss lower comp. pistons or get them skimmed.thicker head gasket.
A clue of where to get the oil feed from.(oil press. switch??)
A custom manifold,or a clue to a firm that could fabricate one with whatever turbo would most likely fit.
And where to get the sump modded to accept the oil return from the turbo.
Piping from the compressor to the inlet manifold/air-flow meter.
And any other parts/fabrications that need to be carried out for the engine to safely accept the turbo.Someone out there must do a kit.Poss,£2500 to spend.

Alternatively you could find a wrecked M3 and have the engine out of it. Or M5 :eek:
