    Default Germany + USA = my project

    Hey BMW guys, I thought some of you might be interested in seeing my E36 project that has been in progress over the winter.

    Many will think what I am doing is not "right" but after owning nine BMWs over the past decade I feel that I know BMWs well enough to know exactly what I am doing

    When my car finally hits the road it will be a 500hp, 3050lb E36 street/track machine

    Rob

    Why have force induction? When N/A power is the better way to go.

    I've seen a couple of these swaps in person but I've never heard the car running. Is it really obvious that a LS1 has been swapped in?

    It sure doesnt sound like a BMW thats for sure.
    But still has a nice exhaust tone.

    I sure will have the best of both worlds! My swap from V3 is in a different league to the other "kits" out there. It isn't cheap but it is by far the best and only complete conversion available, plus this isn't the type of project that you want to cut corners on

    Any plans for Tunerworks to develop and market a kit for this?

    If you don't mind me asking, how much is this whole project going to cost you around? The engine swap and all?
