Boosting an M42
I want to boost my 318is. I was told that a TD04 turbo would be the better choice with a 10-1 compression. I need to know if anybody sells a manifold for the engine, or if I need to weld one up. Also, what size injectors do I need and do I need to upgrade my fuelpump?
I hope anybody can help.
Thanks
nighthawk

try looking for 666fabrication.com or similar I think they might have something set up for an m42 at least in an e30 setup. A supercharger might be easier on the m42, that said boosting can be done. |

Downing Atlanta is probably the most common for superchargers in m42s. Contact them and ask them some questions.

Downing Atlanta would be the way to go. Its a great kit thats simple to upgrade. Over on Bf.c there's a member with about 238 whp at 15lbs on stock internals. They have great potential.
