    To me the effort outweighs the cost. You could do many other things cheaper. Like a twin charged m42. lol

      It's true, not really that hard to do. My Volvo wagon lifts the passenger front wheel when I really get on it and unleash all 100 horsepowers.

      I had pics, but I think I lost the floppy they are on.

              Wrong.

              Sorry bro's. I've no need to lie to any of you. I know few of the people on here. I'm not here to impress anyone. Hell, come to madison. We'll take you for a spin in this E30. It pulls a wheel up. it's really not that hard to do. Did it in my truck if I was really getting on her. that had built motor an I only had 335's in the rear...

              Flame war? ;)

              I believe this E30 is a monster and does circles around almost anything, but I cant see how it will lift wheel. How wide are the rear tires? Compound? Does he burn rubber, back up onto the still hot rubber, and launch on that? Thats about the only way it can happen. Not to menton the 50/50 weight dist. would seriously hinder any possibility, ever, of lifting.

              Video of a 936whp E36. Not that much bigger than an E30. Plus he had an additional ~400hp more than this e30 you speak of, so any weight difference would be negligible. And, he is on a track, likely using race compound. The best scenario for a street car

              http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o6GOzbQlv0A&feature=player_detailpage#t=53s

              It squats, but never actually lifts off the ground. He would need tub tires to get any chance at lifting.

              I like built NA, I just wish it was cost-allowing for BMWs. Too much $$ for too little. SBC on the other hand....:)

                Internet rules everyone. Pics or it didn't happen. Then there's no flaming, no crappy attitudes. Yeah, the claims are a bit outlandish, but its possible. Make with the proof and bam, problem solved.

                NA motors are cool. It's harder to make the power, but crazy NA power always sounds good. Turbo is kind of an easy way out, but damn its easy.

                    I think it'd be easier to snap a 10 second picture on a smart phone and upload it to youtube...I may be wrong, but that sounds really simple.

                        I'd take a euro s50 over an s54, simply for the ease of swapping. They've got similar HP output, and dont the S54s have a lot of quirky issues with the valves and such?
