BMW E36 with a turbocharged M50 inline-six

Buldre Racingteam member Theo Skogberg built his BMW E36 to drift. The coupe is powered by a turbocharged M50B28 inline-six featuring forged internals, Z2 camshafts, ported head, 2200 cc injectors, and Pulsar 6862G turbocharger. It made 670+ hp (492+ kW) and 730+ Nm (538 lb-ft) of torque to the wheels on 1.4 bar (20 psi) of boost. Behind the motor is a Tenaci twin-disc clutch and GS5-39DZ five-speed manual transmission sending power to a E34 210 mm rear differential. The car uses BC coilovers in front, D2 coilovers in rear, and a Pandem Rocketbunny widebody.
