A 5 needs a turbo really. You will also need a bonnet with a bulge then you have to consider the rad with the tb's. What managment would you be running it on?

Its easy to drop one in mind

I would keep your 5 as is if you have spare cash go efi:agree:

wont need the bonnet on throttle bodies. as for the rad i would move it over where the standard intercooler is. and my buddy has an omex mappable ecu for 300. im a rookie to this but i love the idea of throttle bodies:devil: the 2 things im stuck on are 1. exhaust mani 2. wireing loom???
