Here is my plan for my '98 318ti and what will be finished by March (16th birthday). Cars are very important to my family, so ive been saving since i was seven to get a car and tune it before i was sixteen. Looks like it paid off! So anyway, heres what I'm thinking. Keep in mind that this car will primarily be used to drag/street racing style racing, as well as daily driver. OKAY, here we go: -Sparco Racing Seats (front two) -Downing Atlanta Supercharger -Nitrous Express 100 Shot System -Dinan Performance Engine Software -18'' Racing Rims -Low Profile Tires -Erebuni GT Style Spoiler So thats what I'm thinking! All in all, this is gonna run me... around $6000 Any feedback would be appriciated!

If you do plan on making that kinda power, you would HAVE to beef up the inside of the engine. Just my two cents. | | | 07-22-2002, 02:29 PM | #3 | Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Indianapolis, IN. USA Posts: 34 | Jordan, Save your money for more important stuff. Like college, or a house, or a small business. Your 16, you don't need a street racer unless you want to spend the rest of your $$ on lawyers & bail bonds. I don't want to be preachy, but if you were my son, I'd tell you to enjoy your new freedom (as in, you're 16... you have a car...) now take some responsibility that comes with getting older. I was just like you, I wanted that stuff, but fortunately I wasn't given the opportunity to squander my savings on it. Only later in life did I realize why. Fast cars and young drivers are a dangerous combination. For that matter, any car & young drivers are dangerous. How 'bout this. If you want some thrills, take a high-performance driving course. That way, you'll get to burn off some of that need-for-speed energy and learn some valuable driving skills that you don't learn in driver's ed. my $.02 | | | 07-24-2002, 07:09 PM | #4 | Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Peachtree City, GA USA Posts: 69 | Jordan, This is the wrong car for the mission. Besides, it will blow up with a supercharger, NOS, and Dinan chip. You would need a custom chip, new low compression pistons and cams. The Downing SC is designed to run the stock engine program and not with NOS. The Civics would still chew you up because they are a lot lighter car. Get a rice burner. Better yet, read myred318i's response; He's right. If you have to get the ti, put the sunroof back, roll the windows down and just cruise; that way your friends will actually see you behind the wheel of the beautiful thing. Best of luck. ------------------ Dave | | | 08-06-2002, 04:41 PM | #5 | Moderator Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Bouncing off the rev limiter in CT! Posts: 3,156 | Well, if you have to build that particullar engine, keep a few grand in "slush" to re-build it every 5000 miles or so. You will have connecting rods through the block sides in about a month, molten pistons, and it will run like **** in the mean time. Choose ONE: the blower or the bottle. Personally, I think bottles are for babies. Any LOOSER can bolt on a fogger, and burn holes in his pistons. With your proposed combonation, your fuel costs will be excessive, due to the fact that I would only run AVGAS (100 octane low-lead) in a freak-show motor like that, which means you have to ditch the cats, which means TOTALLY custom engine management with no oxygen sensors, which means no fuel injection (unless you want to change oxygen sensors every week).... That's not to say that a couple webber side drafts wouldn't be cool, but you will loose effeciency (power) by dumping the fuel injection. Bolt on the blower, spend the rest on a roll cage and 5-point harness (only get one seat, so you only kill your self)and gut out the interior. Move the battery to the rear and loose the spare tire. I have a beautiful engine for sale, but not if you are going to kill it... ------------------ "Speed's just a question of money.
