This BMW E34 530i was built to drift by Cedric Milharo, founder of Ceika Performance in France. He replaced the factory 3.0 L M60B30 V8 with a supercharged 1.3 L 13B-REW two-rotor. Sitting on top of the engine is an Eaton M90 Gen 5 supercharger with a 6 cm pulley that makes 1.6 bar (23 psi) of boost with 30-40% throttle. The drivetrain consists of a Mazda RX-7 FD manual transmission and stock BMW rear end with 3.05 gears that will eventually be replaced with 4.45 gears. Other modifications include CEIKA coilovers, Nissan S14 front control arms, and 2.5-inch exhaust.

Guys,
Please keep me posted on this set-up.
I am looking at trying the same set-up with a Mazda RX 4.
I have a great deal of interest on how you get it going and what you use for fuel delivery etc.
Also I don`t see an inter cooler being used, it the air intake from the M90 not too hot??
Thanks heaps

Hello Ray. You can follow me on social media for future results links are in the article.
It will be dynoed in the next couple of months.
I was using x2 750cc in the primary location and x2 750cc before the s/c inlet. Using e85 to cool down the charge. But i underestimated the amount of boost with the smallest pulley so it is not enough and had to run them at the same amount pre and post i/c to have enough fuel.
The spray pattern of the fd inj is not good for pre s/c so i am about to modify the intake to fit a pair of bosch 2200cc inj closer to the s/c along with a universal TB instead of the oem FD throttle body. I first started it on the stock ecu but since then moved to a ms3x.
Best of luck for your rx4 build.
