I've got a bmw 535is that i picked up in l.a. a week or so back. I've already fixed most of its ailments, and I'm curious about where to go next.

Here are my options:

A. Drive it, don't do a god damned thing to it. You need one car that you don't fuck around with.

B. Put a T3/T04E Turbo on it (risks harming the automatic transmission, but with the tranny's 2000rpm stall, it'd boost up quite well). I have everything i'd need except the pipes to bolt this up.

C. Slowly deck out the suspension but don't do anything to the drivetrain, saving the turbo for the older 2 door hardtop.

Your opinions are wanted.

Just do some basic bolt-ons, then some rims, then maybe a CF driveshaft.

Turbo it you bitch! Like you need to ask

i got with C. u need one car to drive every day with good gas mileage dont ya? :-p.

looks like i'm going to do turbo option...at low boost for now.

should = serious v.e. and great gas mileage.

sounds like a plan man.

did i do that? no. instead i dumped more money into the turbo coupe engine. should be done soon-ish. within the next two months.

cylinder head is almost done, exhaust manifold is ported for the t3/t04e hybrid. things are coming together.

incase you wondered, i chose option 'don't fucking touch the sedan.'
