People with really long usernames make the side margin of the page look retarded.

Nice score on the car, what did you pay for it?

[bmwmike]

400 bucks, lol ive been harrassed about the name already, someone told me i must have the record for longest user name ever. I think for some reason back when i registered i put my email in thinking it was the space for that? Id change it to bmwmike if possible and not already taken..

haha see....told ya

[bmwmike]

whoa thanks!

as you can see by my rating ive been around for a little while, just havent participated a whole lot. Ive wanted to do the 4.4 swap, but thats just so much more custom work. And really the only pros of that over the f/i m30 would be an extra gear, a bit more reliability, the wonderful sound, and how unique it would be. But i can get more power from the m30 with less money. And the sound of a turbo is just as intoxicating. Anyway Ill keep you guys updated.
Heres what my 540 sounded like with some exhaust to give you an idea
