First off let me thank Marco...(Marco1119 here on Bimmerforums). He is a supporting vendor for AA on Bimmerforums. He can get you the CHEAPEST prices on AA stuff. I saved almost $600 on the AA stage 2 buying it thru Marco. I was in constant touch with him on the phone, and he made sure everything was done correctly!! Thanks Marco!! If anyone wants anything from AA, get in touch with Marco.

I didn't know Marco from a hole in the ground at first. After many months of trying to figure out which way to go, I felt safe enough to Pay Pal the man almost 7k!!! :D

I bought Turner's cam kit back in April, but after a couple months I wanted more power.

So I figured BEFORE I get married I should buy a supercharger, and while I'm at it buy the STAGE 2 setup.

I plan to finish my M50 install tomorrow, drive the car a couple days, and start on the SC install.

I will let you all know how it goes. From what I understand there isn't too many Mcoupes with a stage 2.

in pasadena,md.:)
did you start your installation already?
hardest part on mine was putting in the injectors sp the rear most one.
i had to remove the whole ts again and mount them on the bench....pretty much almost done on mine...

I'm desperately resisting the urge.

I'm desperately resisting the urge.

Resisting which urge? The urge to:
A. Keep up with Jason and go FI?
B. Go to Nationals?
C. Have Brian pressure you?

I definitely want Brian to pressure me.

Very nice!
I've got a Stage 1 laying in the basement, waiting to be installed :)
We should have a FI BMW meet once the weather get a bit warmer. I know there are quite a few of us in the area.

Scott and Nick you guys are too funny!!!!


Took off work today, starting install. ;)

No shit. :)

Good luck with your install!
I'm putting mine in as we speak :)

I've already got the injectors in and am about to connect the bracket along with the blower. If you have any questions about the fuel rail/injectors feel free to PM me. I was able to put new injectors in without disconnecting any fuel lines.

No small task. At least not putting a stage 2 setup on an Mcoupe. NO ROOM! If you think it is tight under the hood of an M3 try a Z.


Slow process....

Just finished it up, but I didn't have enough traction fluid to fill the system so I couldn't even take it out for a spin :(

Looks like you are almost done too, good luck with it!
BTW, if you are having problems figuring out where the traction fluid reservoir goes, it connects to the bracket that hold the AC refrigerant onto the frame rail. Took me a while to figure it out because the directions don't mention it and the pics aren't that big.

Boy that was quick. There is NO way in the world I will be done this weekend. It will take most of of today just to remove the bumper and grind all the metal bumper shocks, and the aluminium to fit the intercooler. Oh and my kit came with a SPAL electric fan that has to be mounted, since the stock one takes up too much room up front.

Also I have to put M3 power steering lines in my car since the Mcoupe lines are in the front around the stock electric fan, right where the intercooler goes. We also have to finish relocating the power steering resivior since we have to drain all the lines, and with all the new SC plumbing you would NEVER get to the resivior again.

All kinds of little @#$ that will take time, but I am in no rush.

Let me see some detailed pics of what your's looks like finished.

Thanks
Jason ;)

I just saw your PM about the traction fluid. I'll check now...

I have about 1/8 of the bottle left over.

I don't know if that will help but you are welcome to it.

So I figured BEFORE I get married I should buy a supercharger, and while I'm at it buy the STAGE 2 setup.

So how's the install coming along? Any more progress today?

I think someone is getting aroused at the thought of running legitimately fast in ASP.

rob, was the AA on the yellow car when I saw it back in Sept? I'm really hoping to put some FI to the m50 in the summer time.

stimpee, the m50 is still running strong, has about 20k more miles on it now. Sure is a screamer though, with just chip, and headers its running with s50s
