I saw the smoking tire on you tube. I'd like to see the V10 in the new Z4.

Agreed. At least this dude is informative, and talks about automotive history. Parker I've blocked on YouTube. So annoying

Probably not too bad.

The S54 I put in my E30 is pretty balanced. Although I put a heavier exhaust, kept the full size 16" spare and a bigger than stock battery (and sub).

While Donut Media is a pretty funny dude... I much preferred this video from MotoIQ... You really get to see the "meat and bones" of the conversion to S55.
