Warm.
Yes, large BMW rad, It's a cross-flow, not a U-turn.
Front crossbar that can be opened (to simplify the engine removal).
VAG expansion tank: an excellent investment of 15 euros
PS on the left with ZF reservoir and a front cooler
One bigger A/C condenser from QP4: removed the additional condenser under the rads. r134a hoses
Alfa 75 brake master and tank (brake sensor moved to the pedal)
Coil-overs from AS Motorsport of course !
Shock tops welded to the body (like on later models)
Individual air K&N filters (absent on the picture): a much simpler air plumbery, easy access behind the engine
A direct fuel delivery to the ramp without the plumbery mess under the windshield
On the engine picture: a 120A alternator
There are many more that can't be seen on the picture: inside the engine and all over the car.
The one I still have to validate: 6mm stem BMW intake valves, slightly bigger and much lighter. I hope they won't break, it's a regular quality stuff and I had to slightly machine them to improve the tulip shape.
Spark cables are average. I've been using these EV6 injectors for 2 years before the rebuild.
No pop-off so far, I'm still breaking-in, I have time to install a new one.
