New bits for the Beemer.......

Hi all. Been a bit of a long time since been able to get to any sites to post or more importantly be able to fit any new bits to the M3. Well the time has come and have eventually found the space in a busy program to get induction and suspension fitted. Took a drive up to Slough yesterday and the guys at AAT where awesome. Took a while to fit it all but they adjusted camber and height to ensure all was good. Suspension is by a company called HSD and induction by Carbonio. Anyway i know it's not a Zed but have put some piccies below for before and after. All comments welcome.

Before...

Hope you like.

Didnt think you could improve on a M but you have certainly made it look 100% better. Induction looks like a few seconds quicker as well.

Took the grandkids to Bovington Tank Museum, yesterday, certainly improved it since my last visit. Liked the E type enginge cut in half. Think the 1st WW trenches were well done, kids were 13, 15 and they still didnt realise all that happened back then!!

How the crews managed to operate is beyound me, dont think I would even fit in the hatch!!

Think our grass cutting round the camp was much better standard!!!

Looks meaner now it is lower, would be interesed to know the before and after figures with that induction kit. The aperture looks small, but is that the angle of the photograph?

The company who make it claima 10bhp increase on the rollers but i think thats down to the difference of inlet air temperature due to the carbon fibre. The aperture is the same size as the oe stuff but elongated down the grill to scoop up more air. Then the oe airbox is removed and replaced with a large cone filter surrounded in carbonfibre.
