RE: people's opinion on these
Dude.
If I was you I would go for something bigger than a 1.8, it wouldn't be able to pull the skin off a rice pudding.
I'd go for a 2.5, I would stay away from 2.8s as they have all sorts of problems (Nikasil for one!).
192hp in a BMW Estate, it couldn't get much better.
Assuming you could insure it etc.

you not find many m50 now with nikasil problems , get a 2.8 mate theres only 3 brake horse power in it but the torque is loads better and the 2.8's are so restricted it's unreal. german tax laws
get a big bore throttle body a lad does them on exchange basis on e36coupe.com and davef at same place. and you looking over 200bhp easy just with them little mods.
god i miss my beemer 
and dont listen to olstar he's weird and touches boys in wrong places so his opinion doesnt count lol
