Thanks all - I appreciate the kind words! I'd love to snap photos of some of the cars on this board as well...

Camera skills are on point, as well as the cars you point the camera at.

Had the girlfriend take this one - credit goes to her. I edited it though

What do we have here?

[Earl]

One too many of something that could just be swapped for one larger one 

Do I win a cookie?

Upgraded stock or new? Idk what I'm looking at but more power!

[i_love_cars]

They're upgraded twins, gonna get started on the install soon!

[Jdesign]

Whats the second one for, and why are they so small? 

[patsbimmer1]

Are these installed yet?  Is it done yet?  Are we there yet?

I imagine in the 1800's they rubbed cocaine on their horses nose for a performance upgrade.

This is a good start

I'm imagining you turning into Kurt Russel's character from Death Proof once this is done.  But instead of a Nova or Charger it's in a 135i.  Not to say your going to turn into a murderer but people may get that feeling after going for a ride.

Rub some cocaine on their nose before the ride. It will take the edge off.

I think his plan is to see if he can slow down the rotation of the earth.

[suspenceful]

Lol 

No progress yet. Still waiting on the last two batches of parts to come in. Trying to have it back on the road by July.

Stock vs. not stock.

[B C]

Probably a bit of a heavy assembly. Is it a difficult to reach area for install? I had enough fun with my M20 stuff and there was a lot of room
