    Don't mind if I do

    I took a trip the local junk yard this morning to pick up one of those Volvo front lips and the first thing I see is a red 320is with some bbs wheels on it and an airdam. Before I left I took a look under the hood and found a full Callaway turbo kit complete with an external blow off valve, polished callaway intake manifold, port and polished head with over sized valves etc. The turbo alone is almost as big as the head. So I took the head and the complete kit and 81 dollars later it was in my trunk. Holly shit, I wish I still had my 2002. What should I do with this thing?


    Needs a little cleaning

    Damn. That's so lucky. Should have bought the whole car. Didn't take the wheels either? I saw a 2002 at my junkyard with four 13" alpina wheels. Suck it wasn't in the section we were aloud to pull from.

      Clean it up and keep it. Build a turbo M10 just because you're one of the few who can do it right.

      Bad ass.
      Not that I care, of course.

                I've seen the exhaust manifold before, but not the intake.

                    Does anyone know how much power you can get out of a m10. Any one know how much this thing is worth? I can't decide if I am going to build another e30 or sell it.

                      Build another car is my vote. real Callaway shit is too cool to sell.

                              dang, that's pretty awesome. A friend of mine has a callaway e23 735i with 20,000 miles on it. It's probly the coolest thing I have ever seen. I think it is time for you to build a 2002 or e21. I'm leaning towards e21 just for originality's sake.
