Even if you can get a stroker for 37k. Its makes much more sense to get a used S65, drop the compression and install ESS Supercharger. For sure under 20k.

Not if you try to trade-in your blown engine. You need to provide the core for the stroker. With the core provided the cost is around $25K without installation. If you have to provide an new engine for them to stroke you'll be looking at a massive bill.

A year ago BMW had suspected that metal had gotten into my engine as a result of a small accident that I was in lol... Anyway, my insurance company was going to pay for me to get the Dinan Stoker engine instead of a new replacement since the Dinan was a few thousand less than a new one... But after further testing, they determined that current engine was fine. I was kind of disappointed. I literally already had my name on a Dinan engine in the warehouse and it was ready to be shipped out... And you are correct, with a salvageable core, the Dinan engine was going to be about 25k.

1MOREMOD · 01-16-2013, 11:19 AM

right thats why i said 50k. core and 25k so 40-50 probably.

p-streets · 01-16-2013, 07:10 PM

o the things i would do for a stroker. lol

M3 Esq. · 01-16-2013, 07:25 PM

I would have been at Home Depot in the section with the metal files. haha.

Sorry, but they lost me at Hennessey for this list.

I'd much rather have a stroked motor if money wasn't an issue.

Mr.Metak2you · 01-16-2013, 10:25 PM

^this.

Also as far as the list, I think its cool. I like DINAN!

1MOREMOD · 01-16-2013, 10:28 PM

saw a 2002 dinan s3 yesterday that was listed as 58k original MSRP with 68k in dinan upgrades!

dreamspeed · 01-16-2013, 11:09 PM

Are those numbers at the wheels or at the crank?

crank i believe. if its wheels i want now.

Team Plutonium · 01-17-2013, 09:05 AM

They have some horrible cars in that list though. I'd take the Dinan, Brabus and GT..... the rest.

Munit · 01-17-2013, 05:32 PM

A dream of mine would be a stroked motor to 4.4 litre with new cams/lifters/springs to increase redline to 9k . A nice 550 horsepower in the m3 would be absolutely perfect
