2014 E63S; AMS 100 octane ECU dyno tune; EDOK TCU tune; BB intakes; sprintbooster
Hopefully no one anymore ... you can achieve the same results for a fraction of the cost with tcu and ethanol tunes on stock internals

and having been on these forums since 2014.... I don't know if a single person with it

There was one for sale in Chicago earlier this year. Maybe March - May timeframe? I can't remember exactly. Never saw them post up here, though.

Damn. That is the correct way to build it! Why did you have the oil pan off? Were those engine mounts part of a kit? I have never seen those before. I gotta ask.... do you have a ballpark $$ for a build on that level you are willing to share?

Thanks!!

Lots of nice bits being used and thanks for sharing the built photos. Looks pretty straight forward, surprisingly.

Although those intercooler hardpipes are hilariously tacky.

I believe that is the Weistec "Bridgepipe Kit". comes with the bridgepipes, modified motor mounts and custom motor mount brackets. ~$4K for this kit
