My friend and I are building this. 2000 540i (his car) I have a ton of pics in the conversion section (click here), but figured i'd post it here too. Just a daily driver car stock 5.3L w/ 317 heads and a MPT-70 turbo. Extreme budget built. Excuse some of the horrible welds and crappy looking piping (that collector) most of it will get smoothed and polished so not a ton of time was taken to make it look perfect.
...oh and the car will retain all the luxuries...AC!!

And being able to get to the spark plugs was something I kept in mind.
