What is your timeframe/budget for the turbo stuff

I want to keep the turbo as cheap as possible. And i'm not sure about the timeframe for it. However as money comes in things will progress. However; I do want to do the 2.7i swap immedietly since it is cheap. I just need a 325i head and 325i electronics and some miscellaneous goodies and I should be all set. Not sure if I want to do anything to the 325i head before I put it on either. ofcourse I could probably source a lower mileage m20 longblock (325i) and just swap that in however I don't think I'll benefit as much from it.

Edit:

M50 swap!

I think Brian has an hx35. That he is trying to sell

a non intercooled  4psi setup would be sick

I no longer deal with Brian; bad past expierience

However, The hx35 (or Hx1c) is what I would most likely run

But it'd only make 150 to the wheel

Post drift / burnout videos before nights end. 
Bassboy is counting on it and you DO NOT want to disappoint Bassboy.

My one wheel wonder burnouts? Not having a Limited Slip.

Please keep metal bumpers. Early body lines are so much better. You need an es valence, tucked bumpers, and paint the bumpers black=)

Tucking them looks like a nice option. I think the chrome looks like poopy

Should I PlastiDip or use Trim paint on it?

Where's a good place to find a es valence?

Junkyard for the valence

Also, paint would be great if you never want to see the chrome again. Rough it up with scotchbrite and use satin black krylon paint.
