Engine Swaps In E60s
Just curious, anyone done any? And if so what did you do?
I like my N52 - whole 218hp and 186 torque, but I keep having this weird vibe that I want to have a E60 for a long time. So I either turn it into a project car aka maybe engine swap it, maybe even throw in a manual trans in. Or just give up that idea, keep doing cosmetic mods to my E60 and once Im ready trade it in for another E60, like a 545 or a 535. While keeping all the cosmetic mods etc with me and putting stock things back on before the trade in.
I know I can get close to 300, that would run me about 2,100. And If i wanted to go more, Id need a supercharger. So thats another 5,000. Just unsure If i should stop myself from going into any major mods, and stick with cosmetic mods and get a project car as a second car.
