Did someone say m50 conversion? :)

m50 is a worthless engine to swap, save up for a s50 or s52. a m20 with a few bolt ons can spank a m50

Why is it worthless? A non vanos M50 with a supercharger/turbocharger makes for one of the most reliable power plants you can swap. For the same money, a supercharged M50 will tear apart a S52 swap.

M20 with every bolt on known to man kind will yield 15+ hp over stock, and thats only because the chip is good for about 12hp.

Value for money a m20 turbs is better than m50 swap. m50 plus turbs even better - but costs more.

Then again some people don't want turbo so s50 or s52 good options then. BUT if you are not planning on working your engine, want more power (or your m20 is on its way out) and can't affor an s50 or s52 then m52b28 a good option.
