Some pix of my M10. It was just as clean on the inside.

cleanest m10 i've seen. i got a 318i too..how does ur's run?

[Propwash]

Runs like new, its got 13k on it. M10's are strong like bull, but friggin weak when it comes to numbers, if I was gonna keep this car, boost was next on my list. I did some road rally with it and had it bouncing all over the limiter all the time, never had a prob. Just needs another 100rwhp.

Haha, like that? My buddy has a company that's developing those and tons of other stuff, they build race cars but are venturing into the street market, he gave it to me to try out. Much improved throttle response, oh yeah, sounds sick.
Edit: Don't flame me, it was temporarily ghetto mounted, I know.

Here we go...I'll get some new ones soon - I have some shorties I'll be putting on soon and getting a full exhaust, hopefully within the next month.

Here's a couple shots from the day I put my newly built motor back into it's home! :)





It's a little dusty now, and sadly, my brand new coolant resovoir is already discoloring - I think I should just paint it black. But, it still looking awesome! :D

Have your exhaust manifolds held up well? They look really good silver, what did you use?

HAHAHA...funny you ask.

No, they haven't. They look like shit now. The paint flaked off really really fast. I think I should have tried throwing them in the oven before putting them on the car. Problem is, on the car, they get way too hot too fast. If you do the oven, it's a controlled hot temperature.

My shorties will go in the oven, and should look tons better.

The manifolds looked good for a couple days, then they flaked bad. I used VHT Silver Paint, which I THOUGHT would hold. Oh well lol

[nando]

yeah, there's a reason I didn't bother painting my shorty headers. jethot ftw!

[nefarious7907]

I used POR20 for my manifolds and it has held up really well, and hasnt discolored or flaked off.

I thought as much. Ohwell. I may try something when I put my late model back together, nothing comes out perfect and is easy.
