Twin turbo kit or swapping an engine in from a C36? Or should i get the C36 spec camshafts and head porting done from blue ridge MB? |
Talk to Jonathan at Blueridge.
There are several ways to get more reliable power out of the 103/104 motors but no matter which way you go, look toward $7000 for the entire package.
The Twin Turbo kit cost plus installation plus tuning seems to run up to $7K by the time it is all done.
A motor swap to nearly anything is at least $7K once you buy the motor/tranny, driveshaft issues, electronics, mounting issues, tuning up etc. It usually tries to start plug and play but 40-70 hours of swap time just adds up.
At some point you might look at just buying a 400E or 500E, selling your E320 and having a fully engineered solution that gives you 275-320HP out of the box. For the bump to 400E I know it would be a cheaper option and depending on the quality of 500E, it might be just above break even.
