I think he's running speed density, not alpha-N, but I don't remember.

Yep, speed density. I could never seem to find the overall drivability qualities I was looking for using alpha-n but I never really gave it a chance as I had such a good tune going with speed density.

All that work and you're still on a cup kit? I'd think you'd be on jstocks or coilovers by now. Very nice car though, If you ever want to rid yourself of the front valence let me know ;)

I'd think ASTs, but the car is so clean it's hard to complain even when faults are found.

What does the torque curve look like with the new intake?

I havent even pushed the limits of the H&R's yet. Coilovers are really the only thing left to do besides some bodywork and paint. I have some rust issues I need to deal with on this thing but I made it this far so Im just gonna have a rest for a bit and drive the shit out of it for a while.;)

[Wh33lhop]

Sounds like a plan.

I have a question regarding The dtm rear aprons? You said would be lots of work to fit... I was looking it to doing so on my swap in the rear, but how much work does it look like to you?

[Jean]

Very nice car !

Do you autocross and/or attend any hpde events with it, how does it perform? The head work looks nice!

It would take some farting around on MY car...I only said this because my car is an early pre-facelift body with late model bumpers and most of Ary's stuff at DTM is designed to fit the late model E30's....My custom exhaust makes the exhaust cutout on the rear apron an issue also as I tried to tuck the muffler up as high as possible under the valence so the tip is higher than normal.

The fit shouldnt be much of an issue if your car is basically stock.

[Beej '86 325es]

Awesome, that's a well built car. I like these long-term projects.
I'm interested in how you did your rear brake setup. It's not a Massive setup? I'm looking for something very similar.

[Van Westervelt]

Has this ever been to the E30 Picnic?! :)

[ian e30 318is]

Wow awesome build!! Your attention to detail is exceptional and the engine setup is absolutely unreal! I can't wait for a video. Oh and I also want a set of arc's now because of you!! Great job!
