    I've busted too many dates to give any with confidence - but that's really the last thing I need on the financial side. My listings are ready, and I'm wrapping up the copywriting & visual content.

    Will it be ready by today or more likely tomorrow?

    While we wait for final shipping rates - I'm working to add E39 & E60 M5 SKUs to the GB. We'll get the best discount with most quantities.

    If you guys know of popular FB groups & IG pages, let me know in PM. This would really help!

    This SS group-buy becomes more more tempting the more I read it. Wounded if I went with ss oversized v1 header and section 1 it would brake into 360hp range 🤔 on the dyno, currently sitting at 340 with csl airbox, 272/280 cams with jvt catless headers.

    A friend of mine has over 900whp in his twin turbo Skyline, the car is beautiful, the engine bay is beautiful etc., great example of its type if you like Japense stuff, this car is scary fast and with the adjustable AWD it can put it down as well.

    I'll bet I have spent 80-90% of what he has and I'll never see more than 350whp with my current setup, makes me wonder if I am crazy sometimes with these types of power mods for this vehicle.

    I think people often forget this was a 60k car new and bmws have never been cheap to modify. Wait until you look at operating costs.
    Plus modding a naturally aspirated motor for power is never cheap or easy.

    Discounts or not, dropping four grand on headers and cats is a lot of damn money and hard to swallow but is much easier to rationalize over 12 or 24 months. And please don’t take this ask another task. I and others greatly appreciate all the work you’ve been doing for this group buy. I am mostly making a general statement that probably applies the majority of us.

    You’re in for some disappointment from that stroker. I would suggest altering your driving style or changing to a car with powerband more to your liking (high displacement and/or EV and/or turbo).
    Wouldn't trade this car for anything. Just looking to squeeze what I can out of it. 😉

    Quick question on these headers for anyone who might have an answer. Are there any noticeable gains under 3000 rpm to be had with either the V1 or V2 setups? My car is currently bone stock, but I'm planning to go 3.4 liter at some point. This car will never see track time, but I would like to gain some power in the range where I actually drive it. Not planning to do cams or intake, just the stroker. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

    She’s right… and $15k would be on the high side!

    I counter with, you knew full well what you were getting into lol. I think mine is happy I haven’t actually bought a radical yet. I find sending listings of far more expensive cars saying “what about this” helps with spending sprees on this car. Just the knowledge of it could be worse helps I think.

    For those of us "old" guys on this forum that have wives, try telling them how we are buying more crap we don't need for the M3 and then try taking their temperature. "No really Honey, I need to buy these because the EPA might not allow us to in the near future and it will make my car faster and sound cool". That will go over about as well as telling them they looked like they gained weight or calling them buy their mother's name. I for one don't want to become a eunuch, hence the statement about 0% financing. That is much less painful than taking four grand out of the account - at least in the eyes the wives.

    No need to justify yourself. You do you!
