Hi All,
Thought I'd share my project here. Its a 1992 BMW 525 that I've owned since 2002. It has seen a supercharger, a T3 turbo/megasquirt setup, and now a T4 DTA S80 Pro setup.
The engine (currently) is a Non-VANOS (variable valve timing) M50 motor w/ a 2.8L crankshaft and slightly over-sized pistons (84.5mm). It's slightly larger than 2.8L but smaller than 2.9L.
Here are some various images throughout the build:

That intake is a work of art. Your friend is extremely talented. Immaculate and crazy fast, well done!
What gearbox are you using?
As I mentioned on the 'other' forum, I have the same car in Touring flavour, but is the VANOS version. Your pics have answered quite a few questions about turbo space etc but I was wondering about the gearbox, since I would have to ditch my auto.
