Good afternoon forum members - I am not sure if this is being posted in the correct area....so if not....my B!
I currently have a very clean Alpine White 2002 540i/6 with a bunch of Dinan and E39 M5 bolt ons. I LOVE the car, but am truly looking for substantially more power. I am toying with modifying the existing M62TU by purchasing a VF Kit and maybe headers....at a great expense as you are all aware. My other thoughts were to sell it and buy myself a well maintained, well sorted, relatively low(er) mileage M5...with the hopes it has enough power. I do know putting a blower in the M5 reaps substantial gains.
That being said - I'm looking to hear your own personal experiences if you've toyed with the same "issue" I am. What you ended up doing, etc.? I'm not in a rush at all.....but Summer is just around the corner!
Thanks in advance!
