    E39 BMW M5 as Supra Replacement?

    I am a BMW tech. Every BMW V8 we have or have made arnt great engines. Yes there good when there running but they are very exspensive. They use a lot of oil. The ITB's are cool but the throttle actuator that they have mounted in the v of the engine like to take a shit. I have changed 2 of them...

    My Mod list for a 7M-Gte and how much power might i be able to reach

    without building the motor your prolly wont get much more then 325whp or so maybe. I have the 601 with forged internals and many of the other upgrades you have listed. at 15-17psi im hitting 376whp 383wtq. I stopped tuning after that but I may be able squeeze a smitten more out.

    they were from another member some time ago. was told they were never used. Not sure of the brand. Im not not sure what id sell them for prolly not much. I do need to get more so we may be able to work something out. I know I was thinking of upgradeing to the rc 750 at a minimum.

    1st 7MGTE rebuild...No deadline...

    it worked good. 376whp 383wtq at roughly 14 psi and that was with more tuning still required. I don't believe you will get the 500 with the ct but like you in the future im going to upgrade the turbo in the future. I still have more to go this winter I hope.

    Rod and Main bearing question

    If hes going o machine the crank then the bearings need to be undersized. Undersized bearing means the internal diameter is smaller. Oversized is the block side has been machined or line bored. Common mistake though.
