That's purty.  How's it run?

Is that an OEM BMW e36 radiator fan?  Does every M42 e36 have one?  I was looking to get something like that for my e30.

You chipped a Motronic DME with the turbo?  Or did you do a RRFPR?

How's the stock clutch holding up?

I'll look for the later model; most of the early ones I've seen still have the clutch fan.

Why are running a RRFPR if you are chipped and have bigger injectors?

yes they are s50b32 i had them from a previous car but you can get them from ebay,they wernt that hard to fabricate,just take out the centre 2 itbs cut the linkages down,machine the edges and make some brackets to bolt to head,i turned my fuel rail around and adjusted the fuel in/out lines.you also need to cut the air rail so you can use the sevo/idle valve and make some brackets to hold it all down,it sound alot but once you buy a set you will see it not to hard at all, will try get some pics.
