i think i forgot to mention that the car has undersized tires right now, 205/50/15, 1" shorter than stock...so it looks a little wierd, especially straight on from the side. 225/50's will be replacing them soon though

Exactly how much work is done to the motor? Port/polish, valve job, hot cam? Oh, and how much $$ would that much work run.

Almost all the internals are factory Motorsport, IMO, the best stuff you can use. Stock M3 camshafts, M3 valvetrain, M3 crank, pistons, rods...

These motors love the M3 camshafts, they're 252/240 and work awesome on a street M50, very broad and useable powerband, yet still capable of making awesome power at 7000+.

The cylinder head is worked, specifically in the intake ports and valve pockets, and the valves have a 5-angle grind. The head was also milled to achieve higher c/r. The bottomend tolerences are balanced and blueprinted.

Can't name a price on the work right now, I'll have to get back to you on that.
