Yep I'm about to put on the intake, it's been sitting on the passenger seat for a few days. Should be interesting to see what it does with the chip, although it's SMALL (active autowerke) looks like it was made for a 318 not an M3.

On the other hand it sucks getting owned by fbodies and mustangs and shit (in a straight line mind you.) Um, so tell me exactly what I should do next! I'm thinking 5k to drop on it in early August.

edit: Perhaps my best option right now is a simple blower kit for 3500, make around 300 to the wheels, then put the rest into looks. New rims, painted trim (door trim, door handles, etc..) kerscher front lip with CF splitters.. ?

your car is alreayd sexy as fuck looking. go with speed..it would be a shame to get beat by a rsx..........(disregaurd that it's directed toward matt)

Topik, my friends and I do everything ourselves (at least the chip, intake, coilovers, lighting, etc..) the tint was done at TNT tint, they did an AMAZING job.
