allan 295 Report post Posted May 12, 2017 Let 's agree to disagree on the looks of this vehicle. Comes down to personnel choice for me it looks like any other coupe or sedan from the front. The Ti shape is a stand out and made it a feature of this model in the e46 range along with the sport variant just made it look better. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
qube 3570 Report post Posted May 12, 2017 If anyone asks, instead of saying you replaced the front end, just say you took a sedan and chopped the end off cuz you prefer the look of hatchbacks. That will raise some eyebrows for sure. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you think the overflow tank will last with the supercharger sitting right next to it? shoudl be ok not much heat in front of the charger , except for the extra heat in the engine coolant that might make it explode 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BM WORLD 1286 Report post Posted February 16, 2018 some updated pics of the compact have driven it now , goes ok, does need some work on the tune (a bit flat at low to mid revs, maybe over fueling ??) dyno time soon to see where its at 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
