    And don't forget the shop-vac intake.

    In all seriousness, though, replace all of the bushings and control arms/ball joints/tierods if they are bad. Make sure the engine maintenance is up to date. Then maybe get it chipped, put some bilsteins under it with H&R springs and some tasteful wheels like M-parallels, M-systems, e38 or e39 style 5's, etc. Pics of the car?

      First thing is to replace your front thrust arms with the uprated 750i versions, p/n:
      left 31 12 1 141 097
      right 31 12 1 141 098

      and also the rear pitman arms ('dogbones') p/n:
      33 32 1 126 476 (x2)

      A MarkD or JimC chip will also help wake up the engine.

        Name it Natalie, argue about MTI and ITB on the internet, get belligerent.

        On a serious note, refresh everything before modding (like Blunt's suggestion) then turbo.

          I present to you - free of charge - the following fail-safe plan.

          1) Chop springs
          2) Rust hood
          3) Get bitches
