I imagine that by the time I can afford all those upgrades I might as well buy a newer M.
$6.3k is quite the sticker price for those supersprint headers!
But then again Supersprint is known for their quality parts and their price reflects that. If you look on ebay you can sometimes find s63tu turbos. There was a set of brand new pure stage 2 TU turbos listed on ebay about a month ago for around $6k I believe. But then you'd have buy the manifold as well which is another 6k...

I'm having a valve job done on my car right now and was just curious how much an entire used s63tu engine costed. My mechanic looked it up for me and there were a few listed for around 15k with low miles. For the price of the stage 2 TU turbos +manifold upgrade you could almost buy the whole damn engine!

Either way I can't wait to see the numbers it puts down its going to be dumb fast
