There are two threads.

I replied in the other one.

I know I know!! I'm just bitter that the E46 turbo kits cost so much

You can now get 400 whp and 400lb-tq with silly mods(turbo back, terry burguer JB3, air filters and a couple of galons of race fuel. 135is are now trapping in the 120's still on stock turbos and minimal mods.

Enjoy your mini monster german muscle car!

If I were to pick up a 1 series BMW, I would wait for the 135tii. Between the tii and the EVO, I think the EVO is still the better all around car.

The car is siiiiick!! No regrets whatsoever. Down here in FL, htere are no curvy mountain roads, what do I need the incredible evo suspension for, getting on the highway on/off ramps quicker?? And after a long day at work, the 135's a great place to land.
