[QUOTE="pussy, post: 151362, member: 60"] Doc, my input why i did a M50 conversion.. reliability. i had a 3 months go with a M20B25 car 3 years ago, had much stuff to change and modify.. cost me $$ lesson learned, so my next thing is to do is to convert my M40B18 to M50B25, not M20 engine..(M20parts are not cheap this days and quite the same with M50) My car runs fine since 6 months and so far just the normal service intervals. i dun need to worry about the air flow meter screwing up nor balancing the Co2 mixture, contact point(rotor), plug cables, timing belts, etc, cos the M50 engine is much simpler in design(refined).. even my milage figures -fast roads and town driving gives me 11.8L to a 100km/h.. very good FC. i m suprised that your FC is so high, better get it check. also, consider the power output of the 2.7L M20 versus the 2.5L M50 - 2.7L gets you about 180hp with 189hp M50 and torque is very similar of 250NM (around there) Note also, many have said that the mod into 2.7 engine needs a lot of work to obtain that figures many modders claimed.. well enough said.. your call doc. regards.
