I wasn't willing to be a guniea pig for that amount of money. In the end, I wanted the resale value of a Downing kit. For now, this kit remains too much of a prototype/not nationally known for my money. Joe is a very friendly guy and very knowledgeable. I told him my concerns and he kindly accepted my decision. | | | 07-11-2006, 03:34 PM | #587 | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2006 Posts: 119 | FATHER: you need to remove your inline fuel regulator and put it on the other side. You have it on the wrong line. When boost hits , your cutting off fuel all together.

This thread is like a train wreak. I knew I should stop looking, but it just sucks you in. 90 minutes I'll never get back. Good instincts and a strong desire for members to watch out for members backs. I'll take that positive away from the reading... __________________ 1998 318ti Sport - "Cali" Schwartz II/Schwartz sport interior, Cali top 1998 318ti Sport - "Max" Schwartz II/Schwartz sport interior, S52 1997 318ti Sport - "Tiny" Schwartz II/Schwartz sport interior 1995 318ti Active - "Blanca" Alpineweib III/Schwartz leather interior Other Current Bimmers: 2006 530i / 2000 2.3L Z3 / 1997 1.9L Z3 / 1999 540it 1997 318ti Sport - "Huera" - RIP 1995 318ti Active - RIP 1995 318ti Sport - "Tiny" Sold 1994 325i Sedan - "Jade" - Sold 1991 318ic - "Bert" - Sold 1985 635csi sold 1984 533i "Max" Sold 1984 318i sold BMWCCA #160411 SUPPORT 318ti.org!
