Well today she's back on the road, been stored(dry) since Sept 13th'06, new back rubber, new top munts and straight through the MOT.

Now normally aspirated but with MS and Wasted spark still, sounds great, goes well and response is awesome.

Just wanted to post, I'm mobile again :woohoo: :drive:

New turbo setup is in the pipeline, moving away from the LP setup I had( concept proven) and onto something a little bigger, no date set as yet, but she'll be ready for Santa Pod .

Yeah guys some of them mods I dont know what your talking about but its sounds big & bad. Im very interested to know more ! Ive got a 325i Cab Auto with a Schrick cam. Sadly tje clinder head is cracked. I was looking at that 3.5 convertion & was interested to do something like that, but I guess there a lot more involved to get that far ! Any ideal what I should do with my cad lads. :eek:

the 3.5 conversion has to be one of the easiest out there.

with the correct parts its almost a bolt in job.
