Well it is up for sale but if no one is to buy it by spring then the hypothetical situation may be that it gets snailed.....just thinking right now is all...kind of a what if scenario.

With the right tuning, capable fuel management, and a high octane fuel, anything is possible. On the street, it would just be a big hassle and impossible to do on that piss juice they give you in CA, assuming you live there.

there is a guy on the E46 board who supercharged his E46 M3. Yep that's a 11.5:1 high revving engine with a s/c. He claims that with 3 psi he saw near 350hp at the rear wheel.

He also said just about everything on the internals of the engine has been upgrade, forged pistons, etc, he also has a standalone engine management and upgraded fuel pump, injectors, etc.

He was supposed to go up to 8-9psi sometime this month... I have my doubts and I suspect his engine will go kabooom soon.

Of course with a mild set up and little to no tuning the chances of seriously fxcking up your motor due to detonation are high. Id definatley run a good standalone my local tuner is most familiar with to protect the motor.

high boost + high comp and yield some big power, obviously the window for error is much higher than it is to blow a low comp motor. I'd do it if the motor would see nothing but a good quality gas/octane.
