Carbonio makes one too. Sounds great. astan100 has one. and it's cheap....around $289 and it has a heatshield(thermal barrier composite construction??--guessing that's the heatshield)

that site was great i think i am going to upgrade to the european engine do you think that same intake will work? and if not do you know anymore good sites like that for carbon fiber anything?

Sorry....you can download the McLarenF1 videos...one of them shows some clips of them applying CF by hand to the chassis of the car!



Don't they[carbonio] make intakes for the euro engine too?

i have always been under the impression that it is a Different intake system even before the individual throttle bodies. THe intake seems to connect to the throttle bodies futher towards the front of the car if you kow what i mean. I am sure Eduardo could tell us what he had on his euro m3.

No, Carbonio don't make one for the Euro... well not according to their web site anyway.



Any 3.5" CAI will work on the Euro, but it will pay to get a name brand because the stock box is pretty good as is. Any el cheapo will probably lose you power.



ACS, GruppeM, K&N, BMC and many others make one specifically for the Euro E36 M3.

Start with front fenders... they are the easiest to fab... then hood, trunk and doors... in that order. Doors are the hardest. If you can make them relatively inexpensive and "Perfect" You'll be a winner for sure. Good luck tho... odds are against you. This is a very difficult task.
