I agree. Also when you build absolutely everything before ever starting it up then go to start it/tune it you could have a billion variable that could go wrong. Get a basic working setup first, so you know what works and what doesn't. Fix everything then build. Pulling the motor takes one hour.

 

I can't decide between an SR20 or doing this http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum...&highlight=s42

 

i haven't ran it after it's been tuned yet. i took it to the track once so far on a basemap which was where the pic came from. on the wastegate (10psi) and having major problems trying to get it into second, trapped a 8.9 @ 90mph 1/8th mile. now after getting tuned at 19psi, i'm figuring a 6.9-7.0 1/8th and a high 10/ low 11 quarter mile

 

personally i think you should go with the SR20. Not because im a Nissan fan, but because ive never actually seen a SR swapped Bimmer. But the if you cant fabricate parts yourself, it will most likely be quite the costly endeavor.

No problem man. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask. If i cant answer them, im sure Woo can!

 

Neither. S54 or ls1.

 

This.

 

An LS1 or S54 would be badass but they're a bit too expensive and heavy. I'd be buying premade mounts and wiring harness through k-conversions then sourcing an SR20 elsewhere. Also my power goals aren't really enough to warrant an LS1 or S54, if I could hit 200-250 to the wheels that's already double the power and more than enough for me.

 

This.

 

well an SR makes over 200 stock, and 250 is easy stock.

 

To the wheels? I figured those were crank numbers.
