The Cylinder head was built by VAC Motorsports (STAGE 1) and the oil pump is a VAC high volume competition build of the original BMW pump (20% higher volume than original). The VANOS system is completely rebuilt with Beisan parts ( solenoid pack, oil pump disk, sealing plate kit, seals & rattle repair kit) Also NEW is the problematic stock exhaust hub replaced with a $700 beefed up VAC-VH-S54 hub.
