They were one of the owners dream wheels, I agree they look great. There is a full engine build series for the car. This is the episode we fit the custom cams: m.ruclips.net/video/z0nKwjHe6Dg/видео.html&pp=iAQB
Thank you for the kind words. Will was hoping for a little more power but we are happy with the end result. It was good fun and it makes the right noises. Hope you enjoyed the build series.
The car made 270bhp on the dyno which is around 80bhp more than the standard engine made. This figure was a little less than Will expected but still a strong result. There may be some more work on the engine in the future.
No it hasn’t. We have a full build video of the engine on the channel if you haven’t watched it yet. Porting and polishing the head is something Will would like to do further down the line.
@ I can recommend it. Have a 328i with ported and polished head. Custom cams, other brand exhaust manifold and M50 intake manifold. Making 211whp not tuned yet. After watching your video I am def going to need a b30 rotating assembly.
Such period correct wheel choice.
These BBS Chs were Wills dream wheels for the car. I agree they look great. He has run a few different wheel setups on this car over his ownership.
Didn't think the BBS CH would look as good on an E46 but they do! Does it have cams?

Nice build lads i would be happy with 280bhp from a M52 same power output as a 3.0 E36 M3 basically

What mpg does it get on the highway?
The owner believes that doing a highway run it will still manage to do 30 mpg however overall/ combined you will be lucky to see 20 mpg

@ Thats still a pretty good number, has the head been ported and polished?

Awesome! It has been a cool build and a good choice of parts to transform the engine. Hope you enjoyed the series.
