Was the car in a front end that you either have to buy the stuff or manufacture or is the car running and you planning on changing to better?
I would do a search in regard to intercoolers as each have their pro's and con's. I was planning on going with modified turbos from day one so I chose the Helix as it has the most volume and lease pressure drop from the bunch. Negatives are a waiting list to get as well as a big increase in weight. I have experience with a car with a AMS cooler which was decent and a Stett Cooler. With the Stett the end tank straightness just does not agree with me.

As for the rest I guess custom is the way to go. The yanks sell oil cooler kits but thats because there cars don't come with stock oil cooler unless they sport packs so not sure in terms of efficiency vs BMW.

I managed to find an original cooler etc with fan for a bargain so im fitting that just to get the car started then will start with the upgrades also saw the helix cooler been hearing good things,,,Yes the car was in a front end so i descided to make it abit of a show car,,only problem i have now is i have replaced all the parts that need replacing so its practically back to normal but im having a problem with the ECU ,,,every time i try start the car the starter doesnt turn over ,,,Ive checked the Battery safty switch and ive connected it again and i hve power to the starter but they say on some forums i have to reset the batery or something,,,,I have gthe Bavarian cable but have had no luck,

Do you know of anyone that does coding and an help me out with this problem aswell as delete some of the codes like airbags as im putting in a rollcage ????

Thanks for your advise

For sure ive taken pics from day one ,,how would i do a thread like that ???

search 'matt Q' on the forum he did an awesome build thread on his M3...

start posting and add to it bit by bit because im sure it will take a long time if you do it all at once... then when you have caught up to where you at with your car you can add when you change something on your car...
