Coming to the end of 2013, I thought id list a few of the mods done over the last year and add it to the thread , more concentrated on power rather than looks this year.
First came the first visit to Acid at MSL, on went the Eurocharged Heat Exchanger to help with the cooling.
Original
EC HE
The oil cooler brackets were drilled out of the old HE and riveted into the new one
As you can see below because of the E63 front end, no bulge and all fits together like oem.
Next came the SC Pulley
Loved the home made tool to take the bolts off
After new fuel pumps
Best power run with the help of Jerry carrying out some on site tuning at the UK DYNO day at Acids place was
Next were the c63 rear exhaust boxes, these made a really big difference with the sound, rest of the exhaust was left as is.
Final mod of the year just completed is the Alpine EZI-DAB unit, controller integrated into the ashtray and switch for Aux put in.
thats it for now, no idea what will come next, maybe concentrate on the audio side this year.....
