Enjoy.

Good article.

I did the M50 swap after I had headers and pullies, even on the street I liked the increase in top end pull, more what you associate with an M-car.

For sure. It transforms the car. What whp did you put down with the headers?

On MaxPsi's load bearing dyno I did 220whp with s52 Mani, headers, cat back, pullies and intake. My friend did a before and after on the same dyno day and showed 13whp with the M50.

My swap was right before the FI, didn't get a dyno of the M50.
