Silver Fox 43 Report post Posted April 25, 2007 Ah, what a way to spend a day off. Was also up to my elbows in grease preparing for Taupo and starting to strip my new car. Looks interesting Brent, lots more power? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yuen 16 Report post Posted April 25, 2007 Woa... M745i? I've never seen that engine. Got to do some reading. Sounds like a sweet project! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silver Fox 43 Report post Posted April 25, 2007 So, is this the 276hp version, or the 286hp one? I'm guessing it's not the 470hp tuned up one! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
