Looking to get a HPF stage 2 upgrade but i dont know if thats the best and i hear turbos are bad for the engine is this true?

Here Are Some Pics:
its the white one.

 

what??

if you "heard turbos are bad for the engine", it's probably not a good idea for you...

 

The HPF kit is awesome by most all accounts. Saying a turbo is bad for an engine is a very ignorant thing to say without supporting that statement with details. So long as boost pressure is kept reasonable, the engine is tuned appropriately, and there is a capable fuel system in place turbo kits can be awesome.

I just sold my turbo m3 (E36) which was an utter ball at 535whp. Give HPF a shot!

 

i believe that first pic is ronnies car (acs-3).

 

Yea... no problems with the HPF kit thus far.... but im still waiting for the first motor to go kaboom!

 

I have been too..but nothing as of yet. The tune/boost does seem relatively conservative on pump gas (and all rise accordingly with octane).

Its no AA SC Kit

Ive only ridden in one AA S2 car and it was Rahul's (SN: "Double R") but it was doggedly slow at Stage 2. I rode in it back to back with a Dinan S3R kit and a VF S1 kit and both were substantially faster.

 

You'll be waiting for a long time for a HPF car to go BOOM! It was the best mod I ever did to the car, and there are lots of mods.LOL

 

Not to mention you ditched the AA kit in favor of the HPF kit.

 

Yes it is but my buddys car.

 

i have another question does anyone have the carbon roof from vorstiener i hear its hard to install?

 

I have the V-CSL roof. I would say it's a 7.5 out of 10 for difficulty. I did it at my buddies house. It took less then a week working nights. 2 days at a shop. Shops charge anywhere from $1500 to $2500 for the install. There are alot of hidden costs like:
-New weather stripping
-Roof bow if you removed the sunroof
-New insloation for under the the head liner
-New head liner
-Epoxy to hold down the roof.
Here are some pics of my install.

 

Looking geed!

 

Man thats a good looking car

I was thinking i could do it at home but looks ALOT harder than what i thought

Isnt there a strut bar that goes in the middle to replace the sunroof?

 

Please close and delete this thread MOD. Thank you.

 

love the m3 in white!
And Ac-3's old car is one of the best M3's around imo.
