Is this Turbo Kit for real? Seems like BS but not sure

It says turbo kit for 325 but can it really be fitted to an M3 as well?
Really cheap, I imagine that its got to make some gains but who knows how much. I just bought my little brother a 1994 325i. The body is impeccable but will be doing some other improvements to it anyway. There is currently no engine. I want to buy him either a 328 or M3 engine and possibly boost from there. I know its not cheap but I wouldn't mind testing this out either. What do u guys think? I always wanted to turbo out my e36 m3 but never got to it, so I think my brother is gonna make out good from it.

If the car needs a motor,just drop a smallblock in it and a t-5/cut the driveshaft and rebalance. Dont know if the hood would close..heehee

If you consider that a "turbo kit", you should sell your m3.

i know its not a complete kit and would need a bunch of other things. i asked to see what people thought about mating that to an m3 engine in my brothers car. i don't know i might go with a 328 engine but i'm trying to get a few ideas. i'm not gonna pump serious money into my kid brother's car
