I'm getting ready to drop the m50 in my car, but just need a bit of information regarding the exhaust and lambda senor.
Can anyone post some pictures of how they have joined up their exhaust to m52 manifolds? what down pipes did you's use?

Also i need a new Lambda sensor, wheres the best place to get a replacement? Can i just get a 4 wire one of ebay or does it have to be a genuine part?

Cheers

Right I just bought a new lambda, now have a few more questions.

Where is the best place to sight the pas bottle?

EWS wiring, is Willnz EWS wiring diagram in the sticky all i need to do to get the car running? Doesn't seem like enough wires compared with what was wired in the 525. I follolwed the diagrame but don't seem to have fuel or spark at the engine.

I do have a non ews ecu getting posted to me at some point but I'm trying to get the car running so i can get it on my 4 post ramp to finish/work on the exhaust

best place for PAS bottle is to mount in the standard E36 location, which is the engine mount arm on the passenger side. You may need the bracket if there isn't one on the arm.
