It is Rammsteins old car, when he bought it he emailed me about it, I told him if he ever wanted to get rid of it to give me 1st dibs.
He did and I bought it. It is nicknamed the panty dropper. The two guys before me who owned it knocked their wife's up twice forcing the sale of the car.
It has a cam / chip / intake in it and the reason for the 2.8 M50 is because it was always intended to have FI added to it, I am really close to adding a super charger to it.
My problem is, it is already hard to keep planted with approx 250HP I cannot imagine what a handful it will be with more than that.
The guy that restored it, cleaned up the engine bay nicely. I added the Mason strut bar.
If I were swapping in an engine on an older 5 series I would look into a S52 or S54. No need for valve adjustments and some nice HP.
