    Yes, you will need to create a lever arm that allws the pedal to fully open close the throttles, this is the same that they do with conventional plates.  The machining and precision is going to be super important as well.  I get geeked out by this sort of stuff, so please keep posting updates. Thanks!

    cool project in that no one has done it (or very few) useless project in that e30s already have good weight distribution, so it doesnt take such a gigantic effort to balance them out.  he lost the trunk, rear seats, and gained an empty engine bay (which is useless).

He is the original owner, makes really good money but loves his e30 too much to "upgrade" Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk Dr leadfoot are u sure this isn't your old car??? Or just goldmember inspiration?

    That is interesting, and nice to know. I will have to say that my car has run really great every time I've put Shell premium into it. Not sure if the extra octane make the difference or not. If so, then I'm sort of hesitant to run less than 91 in mine. Had an 88 truck a number of years ago that was supposedly tuned to run on 89 octane, but, ran like crap on anything less than 91. Seems there is definitely a difference in fuels between octane ratings.

    I grew up riding in the back seat of several E28's, so I'm gonna be stuck to these cars forever [image: :)] Can't wait to own an E28 M5 someday. Thanks for sharing the article!

    I am not quite sure if I am going to do it yet because of being in Wisconsin and my 540i is my daily driver. Don't want snow getting all up in my turbo.
