E46 M3 S65 swap completed..almost
thought you guys would like to see her on the dyno, just AC system and some minor tweaks and she will be ready to come home.
What you see and hear here is Macht Schnell intake, Dinan rear exhaust and high flow cats Rod bearings replaced with Calico coated bearings, motor/trans is out of a 2009 E90 with 70K miles. 100% of this S65 conversion was done by Technica Motorsports in Atlanta, I got to drive her on my birthday this past November, if I didnt know anything about BMW's, it looks like it came with the S65 it has been done so well, brakes are amazing, ABS retained. ECU Motec 150 enjoy:

long list, but here it goes:
everything on the rear end has been reinforced with AKG bushings, diff and subframe, subframe plates were welded in as well. rod bearings replaced with calico coated bearings AKG adjustable shifter CSL rep roof by callenge One piece forged CSL reps 18" on Conti DW's 275 rears and 245 front KW Varient 2's waiting here in Austin to put on Motec M150 ECU all the mount locations were changed and welded in and AKG trans and engine mounts were used every weld minus exhaust bits were powder coated black, including subframe I'm sure I am missing something as it has been 2 years

found some ZCP manual seats here in TX, total weight savings thus far is almost 300 pounds...putting her really close to 3000 curb weight. it made nearly 370 wheel which is a healthy 30 more than a bone stock M3, but mine weight nearly 700-800 pounds less..

not necessarily, people pay what they feel things are worth regardless of what the market dictates. They have done an amazing job, the CSL roof, the seats and extras I added. So the car could have been done for much less, but I figured if I was going to do this, wanted to go balls out and do it right.
