            wow, good work mayne! Pull the sides of the volvo lip in. I had the same one on my car and it looks much, much better pulled in.

            I envy you for having a turbo'd BMW, but at roughly 150whp, it's only 10hp more than my 325is I had haha. But once you get that management in and HG/studs, you should be golden

            edit: what BOV are you running?

                  150?

                  Try 180.

                  I'm running a bosch diverter valve.

                          Catch can in.

                          From valve cover breather:



                          To catch can, other hose goes to throttle body.

                            does it run better with no leaks?

                              Yeah and we definitely shouldn't have reused the exhaust manifold gaskets, we put in new ones and its way better.
