Since its just a new cam that gives 10hp, couldnt the 530i take the new camshaft...:rick:

 

technically probably but that's a really expensive way of getting 10hp


you could go schrick and gain 20hp :rick: or more

nice man, you keeping all your other cars too or getting rid of one of them?

 

The Accord may or may not go, I don't know. Need to think it through...as of this moment probably nothing will go.

 

what other cars do you have?

 

My wife drives a '03 TL Type S which we've had for a couple of months (3-month lease) that replaced our '01 3.2TL.

I have the '97 NSX-T of which I hope to sell in the Spring, hopefully for a newer one. :happysad:

And I have my 1987 Toyota truck that's rusty and doesnt' run. :thumbup:

 

He's giving the NSX to me.
