Supercharge?
So I met with a few locals on the weekend, a couple of them had their rides supercharged...... Now Im considering it. Any suggestions or tips, this is the first time I have even brought up this question. E34 M30 Is it even possible? |

with the M30, you're better off with a turbo

turbochargingdynamics.com Look around there. And to answer your question, turbo M30's are much more common than s/c'ed ones, so youll definitely have a great knowledge base to work from. M30 + turbo = ungodly torque increases oh yeah, and the most important factor is that to get a s/c you'd have to switch from v- belts to serpentine belts, and quite frankly, its not worth the time effort and money. If you really really want a s/c'er though, you might as well put a s/c M50 in it, much easier. In fact, i don't even know of a supercharger for the M30 now that i think about it.

Do some searching arond other BMW forums. Everyone pretty much says that supercharging the M30 is a complete nightmare. Most people give up, sell the parts and get a turbo.
