Holy crap man thats a really cool build. On some slicks youll be kissin 10s high boost and you got it on lock. I only trap 119-120 NA and have gotten a bast NA of 11.3 so you should be right there. If you dont mind me asking what does a build like this set you back. As in does it make it much more money due to the platform.

Ive probably got about 4g’s into it. But if i could do it again i wouldnt cheap out on the mani and i woulda spent some cash for a quality piece. The key to any affordable F/I kit is doing as much as possible by yourself.

However i have got countless hours of sweat and blood into the car. Its not easy working on bmw’s. Not alot of space to work with. Motor is completely stock except for a thicker headgasket .140 to lower compression.
