[QUOTE="Izso, post: 1064733992, member: 2429"] Actually if I had done the conversion myself the car would've costed me 40k instead of the 26k I paid. And I would still be driving the car if I hadn't trusted the first tuner + parts guy I met. The parts guy is a major distributor in certain items I used a lot and I bought a lot of parts off him for the car (about 20k worth of stuff) and his tuner was supposedly "the guy he used". Unfortunately both were incompetent and I wasted too much time and money with them. After I sold the car off (as is) to a friend, my friend wanted the car inspected by his mech which I got to know over time and is now great buddies. This mech only had to look at my ex-e36 and pointed out all the issues with the car. He's pretty much sorted out all the problems with the car and my friends wife has been boosting around with 460whp horsepower (Mainline dyno.. figures are about 20-30% less than Dynojet) without issues. I had issues with drivability back then. If I had used this mech earlier and spent my 20k with him, I'd still have the car in my front porch. [/QUOTE]
