Im debating on swapping the engine and tranny or just swapping the tranny withba manual and installing a turbo. In the last two years I have refreshed the cooling system, airlines along with new spark system so I feel its smart to keep the engine for a few more years.
So whats your thoughts people.

I really like the S52 in the TI and am currently watching for a M52 Alum block out of a Z3 for one of the TIs. The extra power of the 6 but a little lighter than the M44 is appealing.  __________________

If you're looking for power M50/2 turbo, looking for gains & reliability S52, if you looking for something unique M44 turbo, & if you're looking for straight reliability keep the M44 & make it "better than stock" new seals, gaskets bushings all around & enjoy a solid, fun extremely practical, & great on gas little hatch  Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk | | | | | 12-27-2016, 03:33 AM | #4 | | Senior Member Join Date: Dec 2005 Location: Portland Oregon Posts: 1,363 |

Im getting 22mpg with ny auto m44 but I think the tranny is broken and killing the mpg. 99 dakar M3 vert & 97 M-tech ti | | | | | 12-27-2016, 03:40 AM | #5 | | Member Join Date: Mar 2016 Location: Cedar Park Posts: 65 |

99 dakar M3 vert & 97 M-tech ti | It's pretty reliable, and very easy to work on. I'm getting around 22mpg with misfires (from previous owners damage) & ive heard of people getting 29+mpg daily. I'm getting my ti ready for road tripping so I find quite a bit of value in the M44!

Im getting 29 daily too and 32-34 mpg on the last few weekend get aways. I have a couple toys (95' 300ZX, 65 Ghia, 300C HEMI, 92' Porsche 968, 16' ram 2500) & the 318ti is the best for gas!
It's fun too... | | | | |
