You just need to make sure the Vanos can advance the intake cam more than 8.4mm measured at the chain. -
The actual VANOS 'system' is fairly basic rpm switch, however the amount of movement of the cams needs to be within a certain range. It's not a huge deal in terms of performance (as it doesn't trip a CEL), but it needs to be re-indexed at some point...especially easy with the motor out of the car:

I haven't kept my sig too up to date here. Totaled one of the turbo cars, sold the euro swapped car, and sold the e30 only to buy another.
I don't have a lot online, but you can search my name on bimmerforums to see more or at http://www.iheartboobs.com/m3 for some old pics.
