That’s awsOme!
nice work..

So I’m actually impressed with the inlet system other than the gawdy look for wich i managed to figure something out with but I think I’ve come up with a better routing plan anyway!!!, I’ve been contemplating just getting a larger but yet shorter/not as wide radiator and condenser so I can have an entire or half the right side kidney grill as my air inlet so its almost a straight shot to the snails ..get me 3-4” to work with and I can fab something up in no time ,then if I go big single turbo I can still use the same routing as well 💭 I’ll be pondering this and cost of coarse .Something fun to do I ges ,in the mean time I’m working on putting my new condenser in today !

With some finagling I was able to make this one work for now ..I think I mite end up changing it again cause I was in a hurry like usual but it’s a start and my first mock up so will see results ..onto getting my dang a/c condenser out so I can replace that now..so on my way to get my condenser I stopped at the stealer to get a couple orings for the lines to condenser, 12$ for 2 orings and a plastic fill cap wich was less than the rings themselves..is why I could never actually afford to buy a brand new car but dam anyway..,Well here’s a few more pics of the first ‘mockup and a couple pics from the dealer that caught my attention driving out 

Yea I used to do construction for years as a sub then work on car/bmws for side jobs and fun after ...untill I realized it was actually more enjoyable to me working on cars then I gave that all up and picked up a job with a local bmw friend at a transmission shop ,now I work on and take care of some of the rarest and most sought after cars ever made😂🤯😳 not just Ferrari’s ..
well I stayed up last nite to start making my colder air relocation inlets even tho the ones from mmp are cute and all I still prefer them boxed off of colder air so this is what I came up with so far I think it will work ,I’ll have to still notch out the front pipe to turbo to connect to the other pipe basically like a Ypipe inside the bay and yea I decide to trash out some plastics on the very front wich were kindof just in the way for me ,tho I’ll still have to make the fender liner itself fit properly ..should be almost plug and play when I’m done !





 
 

o......yea, behind the scenes it’s a secret world in Ferrari’s fsur I could go on and on but this is a bmw forum so I’ll stop rite there and just enjoy cars for being just cars 
You may only pic one lmao

Through it with a fine tooth comb !   Completely disassembled and reassembled the car so ges I can say yea I worked on it ,is one hell of a car , you’d be surprised what’s underneath 
here some more fun photos,previous cars ,projects exc...enjoy enjoy !!

Well heck yea I work next to or with him every day ! He is one good guy to work with and very good at what he does ..I try to get involved in just about everything there as much as possible so I have a wide range of skills to use 
well..keep posted on the next projects soon to be and thanks for 👀 looking ..

Id say both ..close to cancerous 
So I finally had a weekend to get some work done ! I was able to replace my front and rear shocks bilsteins and h&r sport springs and well as experiment a color combo for my calipers before I have them powdercoated ,put my door panels back on and also stripped 2 of my mpars of the clear carefully using aircraft remover to give them a more raw look then after that stripped the tint off both front windows so I can finally see now yeeeeay , ....And dang I cannot believe how huge the stock springs are once you take them out lmao no wonder .....so far I'm enjoying the drive little more stiff and not so bouncy'  I've yet to really test it out in the roundabouts exc but the car handles amazing and could definitely use wider tires asap tho next thing ya know it's time for winter setup 
It's all for fun well hope yu enjoy and 
? Can you name that vehicle behind the tint I'm holding up ......it's like looking through black paper lmao 6%light

Thanks! now it's time to ad some hp and stance 
unfortunatly I'll have to replace my footwell module first since that decided to go haywire ...for another thread.

Finally got my mpars back again! I previously sold them in need of money come to find out the guy sold the car and kept the wheels so I had first dibs ..he sold them back to me 100$ more with tires even tho there not the correct size just glad to see the wheels themselves so time for a test fit ..by the way I started with a pair of e38 front wheels then slowly found and bought two more and one rear ..still in need of one more rear e38 mpar 18"x9.5 for a square and staggered set up eventually with 4@225or235/40 with a pair of 265/35 rears..,front are 18x8 et13 rear et25 but currently running the square setup with 215/35 while I get my winter setup mounted then it'll be time to lower it some in the meantime,time to shred some rubber. hahahahaaa.....

It was picture day..Notice the different shades of color all from the same camera just different light and time of day,I'm planning on soon to get the things done I'd like but family and work always slows that process so eventually I'll just have a pile of parts to install when I get the time 
hope you all enjoy and keep ya posted when it's mod time
any suggestions or recommendations for tuning or suspension I'd like to hear your opinions please ,I'm having a hard time making the descisions cause the options are near endless these days
thanks all forum members bmw cheers
