so do E36 M3 euro swap..or E36 M3 with turbo..anyways, it is just a more better way of doing things..like i said..

turboing the 323 motor is like turbo'ing the civic DX motor...instead of swapping it for Type-R and turboing it...but S/C 323 does put out some nice power

Jon, are you dense or something? Too much curry making you hard of seeing? I said NO MOTOR SWAP. there are 2 choices.... turbo or supercharger. Now I know why you're doing so bad at school.

Why not contact AA and see if they are looking for an E46 prototype to turbocharge? now THAT would be crazy.

He'd have the FIRST AA Turbo'd E46.... get them to number it + get a cert. of Authenticity and your budy could actually get some mags + sponsorship.

1) Custom turbo kit from a very reputable tuner. Kit includes turbo, wastegate, intercooler, BOV, manifold, piping, software programming and has warranty. Installed and turn-key with approx 250rwHP from 8psi
2) AA Supercharger kit for the same price, he installs it at home with tools. Kit boasts also 250rwHP @8psi and uses an Austrian Rotex blower with aftercooler.

--Turbo will be installed and dyno tuned locally so service can be easily attainable. Boost can also be turned up in the future easily once a decision is made to strengthen internals.
--AA's Rotex supercharger is max'd out @8psi and tech support is limited to phone calls. They do have much R&D behind the kit though.
--Both almost identical price, except the turbo is installed.

WHAT WOULD YOU GET?

Hey Randy, I know your just looking for feedback, but from the points listed you know which way your friend should go, TURBO!

WHERE ARE MY PICS????? PLEEEEEEASE

Wrong try again.
It has the US Spec 3.2L E36 M3 engine which has the vortech supercharger V1.
