Re: My BMW Drag Car
1- No one has ever done it that I know of
2- I have already built a turbo chevy so I feel the need to build a turbo Ford
and the main reason is because I already had the motor.
I agree that lsx powered bmw's are awesome and they fit in the engine bay alot better but I wanted to be different. Plus I needed to cause some drama with a friend of mine that is a die hard bmw fan and mustang hater
we plan to build a custom twin turbo set up on the car

There are several reasons I decided to use this motor.

The 4 valve heads are actually cheaper, you can use lincoln mk8 heads and they are really cheap. The reason I used 3 valve heads is because of the Ford Racing wiring harness
