Ok i am looking to beef up my 240d i have a 1981 4speed 240d. it shifts great. and i have a 616 in there now. and i have to tell you i am not happy with it at all. getting the finger from people when pulling into traffic is not fun. so i decided to get a turbo 5cylinder from the junkyard (or a 6cyilnder if i can find it.) but mainly a 5cylinder. and i am going to try and make it reliable but yet get under the 14 second mark. i am going to be ripping this engine apart and hot tubbing the block. what would you guys suggest? i would like to keep it daily driver if possible. gas mileage if it doesnt go under 20 i dont care.
