I am partial to the Grand National Buick V-6 turbo!

Can't beat the torque numbers!

I'm running it on a dyno in 2 weeks, I hope for over 500HP and 600 ft lbs. at the wheels

Isn't that the 3.2L version of the cayenne motor?

My total investment including the car and paint jobs is less than $10k.

The M52 can be a monster. There is a guy on my BMW forum (something of a pioneer) who has made 996whp on a built M52 and that was with holes in the intercooler (owner was unaware) and without his newest cams. Conservative estimates have him looking at over 1050rwhp with the changes in place though he has yet to go back to the dyno.

I made 535whp and 545wtq on my built S52 with 21psi and strictly pump gas. I could have made well in excess of 600whp with methanol on the little GT35R. With a bigger turbo, the M50 family of engines are downright awesome. (easy 700whp on pump with a GT40R)

Good luck!

Question is ... will it fit . I was thinking of just getting an Mcoupe to put it in.
