| Re: Turbo 3.0csi this Summer That is one seriousely cool car man, the engine bay looks awsome. Those front brakes looks like it will provide some seriouse stopping power. How much power and torque is the engine producing and what are the specs of your brakes?

With new M-s + 44lb injectors+engine overhaul 10 lb boost feels like the 14 i was running before,and 14 lb is wild! I did find out my speedo was out a bit. I had the car pegged at 120 mph one night,car was starting to float a bit,so i let up. Dyno speed check later was 156mph. Brakes are Jeff Ireland big brake kit. 324 mm x30mm Zimmerman BMW 850 Rotors,Wilwood 4 piston Superlite calipers,ss lines.Rears are 270mm 2 piston. Car is safer to drive know. Thanks for ? Uwe | |

| Re: Turbo 3.0csi this Summer I just love shark-looking BMW´s..and that is one of my fav..And once more,what a car..I´m glad your focus is on mechanical tuning rather than exterior modding(which is useless and unnecessary IMO)..Great work,Uwe..and take care of your car..it deserves it!!

| Re: Turbo 3.0csi this Summer That car is really georgious. The rims with black stars fit it wonderfully wich is not always the case with aftermarket rims on older cars. The engine bay looks stunning and I bet the performanse is great to. Don't ever sell this one cause if you do you will regret it for the rest of your life (unless you sell it to me of course |
