Wahey, that's 2 of these now, done mine around the same time as you but into a mk6 van
I'm running the manual bm box purely for the rate of failure of the auto e39 gm box
I had immobiliser deleted & the loaded with a 250hp map, big front mount cooler, open pipe although I am adding a small silencer
I didnt drop mine back quite as far as you though as wanted a little clearance behind the head but it's by far the best thing I've done, makes it do much nicer
I swapped axle to a 3.15 ratio from a mk7
Currently sorting the bits for going up to 400hp
Good work
