The car is bone stock, I am looking to tastefully mod it. First with software, unless u bros suggest otherwise. What do u think the best software upgrade is for the e39 2k 2.8l engines? Thanks in adnvance!
Get exhaust and CAI along with software programmed for the increased flow. Maybe even some e36 M3 cams. That engine will REALLY wake up - and it's not all that expensive for all that. Oh - also an m50 intake manifold.
will an m50 intake manifold fit on the new style 2.8l? its different than the 97-99 2.8's the t.b is under the intake manifold as appose to the side of it...? a
