I was talking to some guy over on youtube who has a turbo 318i. He has a setup that he runs low 12's with. I'm guessing that's about 300whp. Very doable. All you need is to lower the compression a bit. What kind of kenwood are you going with? I'm still debating on which headunit to get, too many choices.Thanks for all of the compliments guys. I appreciate them!
What I'm hoping for, regardless of what route I take, is ~280whp.
I was almost set on a 24v swap, but then after reading about the S/C M42 from the latest issue of PBMW, it got me re-thinking how I want to approach it.
Anyway, I don't have any full interior shots as of right now. I plan on installing my Kenwood deck this weekend and will probably take some then. As of now, the only interior mods I have are an M-tech I wheel, ZHP knob, and Recaro trophy front seats. Ignore the shift boot in the photo, I will be changing it shortly.

Reunited and It Feels So Good...
Hello r3v,
About 3 weeks ago now, a lady decided to back into my 318i while it was parked in the lot outside where I work. Thankfully, she came in and told me about it or else I would've killed someone. The hood and quarter panel were pushed in somewhat, and apparently I'm lucky my car wasn't deemed totaled. While the car was in the shop I decided to just bite the bullet and get a full re-spray and couldn't be happier. Just got my car back from the shop yesterday, so I decided today would be a good day to take some photos.
I got it re-sprayed the original Brilliantrot and decided to have them mount the E28 M-tech I wing while I had it there. I will be getting euro trim soon, as well as shadowlining the car.
I'm just undecided as to what kind of motor work I want to do to the car. Still debating between a 24v swap or doing something a little more unique with the M42 (dbilas ITB's, etc.)
Let me know what you guys think. I also have some more "extreme" edits for those interested. Thanks
-Kyle
