Hello all, I'm not too active here, more so on mye28.com under the username EventuallyAyrton. I've been toying around recently with the idea of swapping out my M30B32 (Yes, I have a 533) and replacing it with an M42 built to the S42 race engine spec except with 9/10:1 compression instead of 12:1 because that's absolutely insane. After building it up with lower compression, I would introduce some danger to the manifold. That's right. Turbo powahhhh. I basically have 3 options that I'm messing around with and right now, that one seems to be my favorite but some advice and opinions would be great!
1: M42/S42 turbo
2: N/A M30B35, built for sure but I'm not sure how much yet
3: Keep wrenching on the B32
Keep in mind that this is my daily driver so I can't have some 13,000 RPM race engine that makes all of it's power between 12,000 and 12,500 rpm. (That's one issue that I would encounter with the S42 turbo build, although, not quite as dramatic as my example) This is all hypothetical right now, but I hope to start gathering parts for this through the next 2/4 years (going off to an automotive college) and assembling and getting ready for the swap while I'm in school.
Thanks for the help in advance!
(Sorry if this isn't the right place for this thread, it's just a random idea I've been thinking about and didn't want to clog up a real board without legit questions)
