      he registered in march. . . I'd think that's enough time to do some reading on how much the z5 sucks

        Let's see:

        Intake - 2 hp
        Headers - 8 hp
        Exhaust - 3 hp
        Tranny cooler - 2 hp?
        Engine - 92 hp

        Total: 107 hp

        I am being generous. And that's not at the wheels.

            do you consider a turbo a miracle?

              Not only is it a miracle, it is the greatest gift from car engineers.

                    I agree with Clappy. Those who have not had the chance to experience the Z5 first hand should not have a say on the matter! :p:

                      It's mainly due to your automatic. We all know the z5 isn't the fastest motor, but mate it with an auto tranny and your a fish out of water. I never really had a problem with my z5. A nice T25 turbo or so would have done it good justice and I am pretty sure would have given it enough umph to leave a few 2.0 protege owners on this board in the dust.

                          Why should you be sad.... or depressed.

                          Get a log manifold made for your B6 and strap a T28 on that bad boy or get a T3 or something.
                          Then tune it and go BP and FS Hunting.

                          Plenty of civic guys boost there sohc's so why can't you do it to your B6 which is a decent engine.
