Figured I would start a build thread on my 2010 ms3 that I'm doing a budget. It's been sitting for a few years blown up but I finally got the urge to work on it finally. Got the idea to do the build to see if I could build something cheaper but with quality parts still. So I started surfing salvage yards to find wrecked speeds. My total budget for this is roughly 7k give or take. So far I have spent a little under 2k with only needing to purchase a motor (trying to find a used built motor) exhaust manifold (most likely will be purchasing a new full race manifold) and methanol injection setup as I'm not looking to go pi at the moment. Onto the parts list of everything I currently have.
