Most recent pic of me hacking up the car since there was a hole in the bumper from the duals. I can either do the custom diffuser from a Corvette or supra, or i can do a non-mtech or mtech bumper if i can find one.

New idea and setup im developing.
Bimmerworld has created an intake and cooling system that they sell for nearly 3,000$ and still requires some fabbing, tuning, and other parts. Ive come up with the cooling system so far for about 200 or so and still coming up with the actual airbox design that utilizes the drivers kidney and the MAF sensor, which is deleted from the bimmerworld race m54 engine.

Finally started putting my idea down on paper and bringing it to life with CAD and putting a parts list together that ive found online from different manufacturers and brands.
So far, my kit will include:
Aluminum dual core radiator
Aluminum thermostat housing
Aluminum prebent piping for coolant
Aluminum expansion tank
75C thermostat
12" electric fan
Custom mounting brankets and hardware
Custom intake system
Cone filter element
Bottle of Redline water wetter
Intake will be wrapped with Gold foil protective film to reflect heat and keep intake temps at a minimum
