I knew that anyway.
Alpina successfully used a turbo on the 3.5 litre M30 (same as mine)
Cock off or cock on. You choose.

I drove a BMW 2002 turbo once, a thoroughly evil car, put your foot down and nothing, still nothing, wait... suddenly its like having a 5 ton wrecking
ball hit the back of the car. Just too unsafe to even try to drive it quickly, I didn't dare take a corner with any power on at all, not that I
am a coward behind the wheel, but it wasn't my car, only on road test
If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

I know where I can get a turbo....
Maybe even a supercharger...
