    Hey Guys!

    First post here, I have a 1986 318is and I'm so glad to see there are a lot of guys here for the same thing, the love of e30s. First off my car is all stock, I have done a tune up so now what is a good performance mod? I was thinking of turbo charging but isn't that expensive? Thanks, Gabreil

    turbocharging costs depend on how good of a set up you want. in terms of reliablity, boost, etc

    and welcome

              Firstly, welcome!

              Secondary - It may not sound too glamourous, but you might want to address the suspension & various bushings before proceeding to get positive manifold pressure (turbo, super, whatever) - your car is over 20 years old and all the rubber parts are either worn or rotten, and putting the strain of a turbo on all those parts will certainly tear any life left in them to shreds.

              This will also give you a chance to add some bigger sway bars, a better set of shocks & springs, and a front stress bar.

              Then address the lack of HP.

              It's not how you handle the good times, but the faith you keep in the bad that defines you.

                      Way to go, Jeffery. You really should keep notes if you're going to try and maintain this many personalities.

                          First of all, you dont spell gabriel, "gabreil". Because its my name, and I know.

                          Second of all, you are the magicgayrimjob182 who got banned. So get off the fucking forum before your asshole resembles the Marianas Trench.
