                She didn't respond.

                  Got my new stock exhaust mounted and new brand new Behr radiator.

                  Car seems to accelerate "smoother" now. Or is this in my imagination??

                              well for several reasons i had it easy.....lots of people in the shop i use have done this swap and this came out of a friends e30 so already had the mounts, and wiring was done....the most difficult thing about the swap was the little things like putting in the radiator(2-3 hrs) massaging the firewall.....getting the blower in te dash to work when u r done.....little things
