One of them foreign thangs. 1985 BMW M635Csi. Motor has been massaged a little, 3.6L in-line 6, about 370 hp at the crank, 313 to the wheels.

Very nice, one of my favorites. May I ask what you did to squeeze so much power of out of it? Had a 2002 540 that I would find excuses to go for a drive. I'm looking for an E39 M5, but prices are getting ridiculous for low mileage ones.


Stroker crank and 1st overbore, CP pistons with Scat rods, 10.5/1 compression. Megasquirt MS3 Pro engine management and bigger injectors. Tuned by a friend who really knows his stuff. He was surprised at the result, especially as it is breathing through the stock airbox with a stock BMW filter, and a stock exhaust system. The Euro cars were not built with cat converters, but were retrofitted when they were imported. This one is cat less, as BMW originally designed it.

To anger a conservative, lie to him. To annoy a liberal, tell him the truth.
