    You gotta try some time attack with this thing! E36 + LSX is fairly competitive on the East Coast in TTU.

    That's the plan. Now that I finally have it running the way I want, I am relearning how to drive with the new power. Its definitely a handful with all that torque on the bottom

    What did you wind up doing about the brake booster? I'm considering ditching my Hydroboot set up and going manual.

    Your car is a beast by the way.

    I'm still using my existing brake booster. We bumped it a bit to allow for clearance. No leaks so far.


    Did some last minute corner balancing and aligning this weekend:
    Minimal weight reduction (back seat) but addition of roll bar and full tank. I was surprised to see that the car weighed only 7lbs heavier (w/o driver) than a stock e36 (3219lbs). This goes to show that the lsx swap doesn't add much weight if at all nor does it throw off the weight distribution.

    For anyone in the socal area looking for some corner balancing/service/alignment. Check Jerick out at JMP auto: http://www.jmpauto.com/
    He's awesome and knows his stuff!
