Most E36 owners install a Signature Motoring performance intake kit for around 9HP gain. Cost is a mere $150 or so, best value per HP gain in the E36 line.
Install time if only about 30-45 minutes in most applications. I have one in my 94 325i cabrio.
Crazy nice sound. Most performance guys install a Signature Motoring performance intake kit for around 9HP gain in the E30.
Install time is about 30 min, maybe 45 for two left hands. LOL

haha is that a blue grass version of the top gear theme?
PS. any info on how exactly you mounted that camera? And how do you protect the lens from flying debris?

Usually track video doesn't do a good job of representing the experience. The video always makes it look slow when the car is really going fast. This bumper-cam really translates the experience well. Thanks for posting, bigdaddy! :-)
The music matches the video well, too! :-)

awesome
Thanks for the comments everyone.
The camera is an Oregon Scientific ATC-2K Waterproof Action Camera. I bought it at Sharper Image for $70 (SI is going out of business, btw). It is a totally sealed unit and I simply zip-tied it to my front two hook with 4 zip-ties. It worked surprisingly well. The video you see here is even compressed a little.
During my next session, it got hit directly in the lens by a bug. Didn't hurt the camera, but it didn't record well though the guts of the bug.
