Tucked the wiring (still waiting on the 318/m3 harness covers), bled the cooling system and all of that shenanigans. Car developed a weird idle, almost like a severe vacuum leak. I disconnected the evap purge valve electrical connector at the advice of a friend and sure enough, car runs perfectly again. Not sure what's going on there but I need to look into it. I'm using the stock S52 purge valve, maybe I need to get the OBD1 version? No idea.
Anyway, drove the car after disconnecting the purge valve and holy hell this car is fast, and loud! I need to set a date with the exhaust shop asap. Additionally, I still need to figure out the intake/airbox situation. I may try hacking up the M20 airbox to make it work but I'm not 100% sold on it. Will update.

A few updates.
Decided to go ahead and replace all of the intake hoses, etc.
Also, had to trim the e34 throttle cable a bit because it wasn't allowing the throttle body to make a complete seal at idle.
Got the exhaust parts in. All Vibrant 3"
Got the 318/M3 harness covers as well. My god, these things were a nightmare to install. Installed my skidplate. Got the UUC evo3 + dssr in and installed that.
And...
I'll update the OP with the finalized parts list and I may add a few more engine photos later.

I am pretty sure this is my first post but I am very, truly grateful for the excel spreadsheet you provided. Just the list alone answered almost all of my questions. I hope everyone knows how much money you are saving them by providing such a detailed list of parts.
Thanks again, man. :up: :bow:
