dont remove your headlight

haha, yeah the car wasn't warmed up fully yet, so it was running a little rich. Aren't e30's supposed to run rich until they are fully warmed up?

that's true of cars in general, it can take up to 4 times as much fuel as normally required to run an engine cold.

remember, his car has a torque converter :)

that doesn't matter reving in neutral, remember my car was an automatic once upon a time, and it was never like that. there's more than a half second delay between opening the throttle and the RPMs changing. I can hear it when he opens the throttle blade. Perhaps caused by the M30 AFM "upgrade"? ;)

It might be an obvious questions but what about water? I know it might be only a small bit of water but don't you have to worry about rain either falling from the sky or from a car/truck. Just curious.

the suction is not all from the front, the side also breath 90%, its no going to be able to pull water uphill if there no suction there.

Does anyone else not care and just love the way it sounds? :p

redid the setup with new stuff

[kamotors]

shit, you should have tested a swissed air box before putting everything back together.

all that would do is let in more hot air, and let out more cold air? and sound cool:)
