Hello! nice bimers..

honestly, as a bmw fan, how do you find the new 7series?

i find it OK..a much meaner look than the S, but the S would still remain my ultimate car.

you shoulda posted in the Off Topic section, more people travel there.

Thank you Juke for the compliment.

But to answer your question... Honestly...I love BMWs... but the stuff they are coming out these days, especially the 7 series ... Im a big fan of all of the new Benz lineup. And I would take the S class over the new 7. I hope i didnt offend any Bimmer fans here... but thats my opinion. And the new SL is simply beautiful.

Welcome to our community! Saw the mods on you site and was just curious as to how much rwhp your putting out on your current e36 setup? Do you have a supercharger in your car and if so what is it AA or RMS?

Thanks!

JamE55 & Mark08859,
Thank you for your warm welcome.

I have an AA stg2 turbo system. As for the dyno figures... i havent tested the 2.8 with the stage 2 turbo yet. It still needs to be tuned correctly. I was getting close to 310rhp on the old motor and turbo setup... not much compared to other cars... but it wasnt too bad on a 2.5 liter.

Thanks again guys.

Wow 310rhp on the old setup? That's not bad. The new one must be a lot more.

quick question...

how'd you get the picture to be in your signature on the bottom?

I've been trying to do that, but it never works.

Yeah...surprisingly it was hitting close to 310 on a 2.5 with a first generation stage 1 turbo...and some other mods. I am crossing my fingers that the new system and motor will be more. But the frustrating thing is the tuning.


Goldeni245,
To add a photo to your signature... just type the code below where your photo is located (But change the "(" ")" to "[" "]" and the url of where your photo is located) into your "signature" box in the profile section

(IMG)(url)http://www.yourdomain.com/yourpicture.jpg(/url])(/IMG)

Hope that helped.
