M50 swap dinan throttle body 3.5HFM
hey guys... so I heard doing the m50 swap on an s52 motor will lose torque? is it not worth doing? I'm also putting the dinan BBTB on it with a 3.5 HFM and a 3.5 dinan intake. my rev limit is still at 6500 so idk if I should even do all those things. FYI I got all those parts free except for m50 manifold.

The M50 manifold losses power below about 4000 RPM, increases it above 4000.
When we put a Turner Stage 4 kit on our M Roadster (S52) we kept the stock manifold since the car is street driven only. For a track car, I would put the M50 manifold on. |

if I do what's the best chip to put on it I know there's quit a few of them out there |
I don't think so.
I like the Turner/Conforti. |

I prefer to keep teh ASC system intact for a street car.
For a pure track car, IIRC, it is just a connector hose that replaces the ASC section. |

Yes, but the ASC may very well save your car.
|
save my car how? all it does is close the throttle when wheels are spinning
|
Which may keep the car from swapping ends and sliding off the road sideways or backwards.
|
lol would of been helpful when I wrecked the car. guess just gotta get better tires this time
|
Better tires, driving schools, and using the ASC when on the street.
I race and teach HP driving at local tracks. I leave ASC/DSC ON, when on the street. OFF at the track. |
driving schools for what? lol
|
For the most important part of the performance package. The nut behind the wheel.
