I moved over to germany and bought an '89 320i. Its euro spec and didn't come with a manual (and not knowing german, I couldn't read it anyway). I'm wanting find out more about my engine and other parts I can change to improve performance, but having trouble finding any info about my car. Does anyone know of any webpage or any books I could check out to learn more? Thanks.

That is a pretty good site with lots of info but it is in german. I have a translater program that works well, its called Web Translater 3.0. No joke, that is what is says. I can read about 95% of that website. I thought I seen some info about the 320i there.
