Calling E55ks in Michigan

Hi all. If there is anyone in Detroit (or slightly north) Michigan with an E55k that is willing to have somemeasurements taken, please let me know. The process is non-invasive and simply to see if there is room for such a mod. From there, if the room is there the member would be asked in for a few fit and finish measurements and a free copy of the final product.

It is intake related and the touching of the car will be MINIMUM!!

Does it have to be an E55? If not, I volunteer. If it does, suggest you email Jokerzwld. He's a good guy and owns an E55K.

"K" is shorthand for "Kompressor."

Intake as in all intake . Not my design or anything like that. Just a potential AWESOME alternative.

I don't know that an E55 is necessary, but it will be for final fit to make sure it all tucks under the hood. I can assure you all that it is nothing that any tuner offers. I will PM those interested and post here as I learn more. All I am positive about now is that the car will be babied and not have any major work. Of course the helpful member will get the final partS for free.
