M96 Frankenstein?

It's great! It's nice having so much more room. Anyone thinking about building a shop, build it as big as you can afford. Of course now I'm broker than broke. lol

I've never seen a forced air injected M96 live a long life. That's why I'm going with an Audi 2.7. They can handle tons of boost and you can almost get them for free

I've not going many documented cases of FI conversions, ever the guy from Ohio that did one with success and then sold the car a few years later. Do you know someone who has blown one up? I would love to talk to them!

I don't know anyone personally. I sold a motor to a shop twice that had installed a turbo on a 2.7. First time they had to replace it they wrote it off as a bad motor. Second time they realized the turbo was a bad idea and were just throwing a motor in it to sell the car. Each time the motor only lasted a couple of months with a turbo. I want to say I sold another motor to someone(another shop) that was replacing a blown up motor that had a turbo on it. I also think there has been someone on here with problems after they threw a turbo on.
