That thing looks sooooo bad ass.. I'd rock it for sure...

Mee too. I wish there was a vendor out there willing to take an e39 540/M5 and incorporate a TS instead of the Vortech. I so want the ultimate 4 door sleeper... At 6'5", I just can't seem to fit right in an Audi no matter how I try so switching is out of the question! Funny though that I fit fine in my e36..:buttrock

There is certainly a vendor WILLING to do an E39M5.

However I don't know that there is anyone willing to part with their car long enough, and enough dollars, to make it practical for anyone other than the certifiably insane!

:D

Steve, with vehicle in hand and an open budget, how long would it take this time for you to churn out a viable product?

Depends on timing, and other projects ongoing at the time.

A running prototype in 6-12 months if being "thrifty" and doing most prototype fabrication myself. If budget was not a significant concern, and willing to pay for expensive one-off castings, etc, then it could probably be done more quickly.

However for me, since it is a "side job" that is the limiting factor. Hence the conservatism in the time estimates. If I really dug in, and ignored my life, etc, who knows.

If someone who was filthy rich were to "employ" me full time, things would move much much more quickly!
