thanks mate

Hi all, my m20 engine has been fully rebuilt with shrick cam fitted i have a carbon dynamics air box, engine has been remapped and figures are putting it at 197 bhp. I have found a full stainless exhaust system with tubular manifold, very good quality but a tad expensive. Is this a good investment a...

Hi all, been a while since I last posted but thought i'd share a few improvements. Opted for all black grilles, some custom paintwork to rocker cover strut brace and catch tank, also fitted CDA carbon air box with headlamp intake. sorry about the small pics, i'll work on that. http://i263.photobucke...

Got my plates from Germanplates.com. very good, they also put in a couple of look alike stickers to give the look of the german plakettes. (tax insurance )

I can only echo B7, use it all the time on my (partial) alpine white paint. I think it gives a fantastic shine. Certainly wont mark your paint work.

Hi All,

Is anyone running un uprated after market ignition coil on a standard oe ignition system? Is this possible and does it give any great improvements? I already have Magnecor 8mm leads. This is on a 325 m20 engine

cheers.

cheers guys

hi all,

can any of you tell me why two small bore water pipes go into the throttle housing on the m20 325.
cheers

you'll certainly not hear the airbox over that then mate, got a full scorpion myself and looking for a 6 branch, so expensive though. if you are getting the same noise i am through your exhaust i wouldn't worry to much about a noisey filter plus there is no substitute for getting cold air into your ...

Thanks, really pleased with engine bay.

To be fair you cant really hear the cda if you have anything more than a standard exhaust system, it just gets drowned out. I've had a couple of open filters prior to this though and i have to say although it doesn't sound as good, performance wise it has made all the difference. it really is a grea...

Very nice. those wheels are something else!

Hi All. Just some pics of my 325, with white grills replaced with black, custom air intake in place of headlamp and bmc carbon dynamic airbox fitted. http://i263.photobucket.com/albums/ii146/thews2807/1144.jpg [/img] http://i263.photobucket.com/albums/ii146/thews2807/1145.jpg http://i263.photobucket...

thats a top idea, thanks

Hi all,

Im thinking of taking out one of the high beam lights (the one closest to the kidney grill) to put in a custom air feed for my filter. does anyone know where you stand as far as mot is concerned? do you need to disconnect the other one ect?
cheers

cheers guys

so was I but im running a k&n induction kit at the min and just dragging warm air in. was thinking of putting the original air box back on but spotted a good write up on these in pbmw.

oh right thanks, i,ll find one.

linky?

Hi All,

Are any of you out there using a carbon dynamics airbox system on the 325 m20 engine and if so are they worth the hype.

Hi all. I Have the 2.5 m20 engine, fully rebuilt to original power, not bored out in any way, it has a shrick cam, lightened balanced flywheel, catch tank breather system, stainless exhaust and induction kit. looking at spending around Ã‚£400 on a proffesional re map, does anyone know what gains i c...

If you can let me know the exact yr of Set leon, i can check my brake pad fitment guides and see if they'll work with standard diameter disks for you If it's the pad i'm thinking on,it has 50mm depth of friction material and the std E30 pad has 46-47mm deep frictiom material Based on that figures y...

GOT GOODRIDGE BRAKE LINES AT THE MIN WHICH FIT THE ORIGINAL GIRLINGS IM HOPING THEY FIT THE BREMBOS TOO. JUST GOT STANDARD SIZE REPLACEMENT ZIMMERMAN DISCS. GOT THE BREMBOS AT A SNIP AND HAVE REFURB...

Hi guys,

cheers
