ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT + COMMENTS |
This car was featured in Bimmer magazine, where the writer said it was the best 2002 Turbo in the world. It was previously owned by Jack Frederick, who sent it to Korman for a full mechanical restoration and modification. This included a new turbo, intercooler, and 5th injector, which means it makes full boost at 2400 rpm instead of 4000 rpm. It was also modified with an E21 5-speed overdrive transmission with LSD. I added a New Old Stock Alpina quick ratio steering box and BBS RS001 wheels so I could fit R-compound tires sized 225/45/15. |
