    I'm leaning more towards fuel injection...it's just a better setup IMO

      Ok, what kind: K-Fisch or EFI? ITB's or single throttle body?

        It will be all custom made. Ill fab intake flange, fuel rail,runners and plenum. I have all the material I need already.. fuel pump, I will use one out of a '91 318is/i

          Nice! Keep me in the loop. I might need you to make me some stuff.

          If you want M10 ideas check out my E21 thread. I'm building a 2.0L using Volvo fuel injection and parts from assorted engines/chassis codes. Unfortunately I have to use the late M10 ugly intake manifold

              just a quick update, I took off the intake manifold a couple of days ago so I can start mocking up the new aluminum intake flange for fuel injection conversion. I noticed that my #4 intake valve had a significant amount of carbon build up on the back side of the valve.. someone on 2002faq mentioned the my master cylinder is possibly bad and leaking brake fluid into the booster and vacuum hose is sucking it in the the valve, easy fix. Today I started mocking the intake flange.... few pics below

                Interesting build. That info about the booster and valve is pretty good information!!!

                  FYI - that brake booster issue usually affects #3

                    The vacuum hose that runs from the booster to intake manifold, plugs in on the last runner that leads to #4 valve. Not sure why you say it usually effects #3 valve, when #3 valve has its own runner and vacuum hose doesn't connect to that runner.

                      2002 content..

                      I guess I'm going by my manifold, mine goes into #3. Perhaps there was a change at some point

                      Edit: if you plan to make your own manifold I suggest copying the A4 setup. See how there is a tube cast into the top that the booster pulls vacuum from? This way vacuum is shared by all 4 cylinders

                              Some manifolds are shorter (and have a shared plenum) so no Tii booster is needed and the balancing benefit is there. Looks like you've got something figured out.
