Or just switch them out for something else before I come to pick it up so I never have to look at them again.

I thought those wheels only came in 22"-24" and in whatever the Escolade’s lug pattern is.

See, to me the E46 M3 is the perfect example of how much power you really want. I’d be happier with a stock one.

Same, I could see maybe a few minor upgrades but if you’re going to spend that much money, why an E46 M3?

I kind of want to buy it and put spinners on it to troll the BMW fanboys even further

Yeah exactly. To me these are all about balance and that straight-six. No point ruining it like that. If I wanted that much power I’d get some muscle car, bolt a supercharger and call it a day. Different cars with different purposes IMO.

Honestly this whole project screams of a dude who wanted to say he drives ‘the ultimate M3' just for the status symbol otherwise yeah, he could’ve spent less money elsewhere and ended up with something more fitting and appropriate if he was just going throw horsepower at it. And that’s ten years ago, before the classic car boom, dude could’ve built himself a really nice Camaro or Challenger or something for less.

I see no mention of supporting mods to engine internals. I'm skeptical of this build.

I have 99 problems, and I don't need 100. Now please excuse me as I run screaming in the other direction.

The block might hold the pressures well enough, but if the lubrication, rotating/reciprocating parts, valvetrain, or cooling aren’t up to the task, the engine could wear out mighty quick.
BTW I'm too lazy to look up all the stuff in the turbo kit they describe. Maybe it's all there. TL:DR
