I'm legend-less at the time but my Legend plans are as follows:

1. Find and purchase a cheap coupe to make into a gutted "race car"
2. Build a 3.5 with type II heads.
3. Make an adapter plate for the manifold for the type II heads on the 3.5 block.
4. Start making 3.5 mount brackets on an exchange basis
4. Make a basic under-car turbo system
5. Gather and release all information on the ECU project when I have free time.
6. Work out a better system to do head gasket jobs more quickly

Plans for the Bimmer:

1. Install lowering springs
2. Some style 95 wheels
3. Magnaflow mufflers
4. Custom CAI

8. Light weight pulleys.
9. Port n Polish + OBX headers + Remus Legend specific (for when I get my 09 tax refund in 2010!) :lol:

You guys are killing me with the ambitious 1/4 mile times.

It took a lot to get those and it took Eric modding the 3.2 with most every bolt on mod avail, a full gut job and my old slicks.

Im just sayin thats all No harm with being optimistic I just dont want any shattered dreams or competition...
