BTW, for what its worth, I have yet to throw a CEL with my catless DPs. No code erasing or auto clearing set on my JB4 either. Obviously YMMV.


Kudos on an amazing build btw. Whats next???

I got used to it, but passengers didn't. Car had catless mids and DP's. Cars with only catless DP's smell considerably better than my car did.

Nice on not throwing a CEL. Im curious if mine will but am not considered.

What is next for the project? Lots. I have a bunch of stuff coming in from sponsors over the next week or two. I have a few sponsors I am waiting to announce. Some people may already be able to guess them. Everything is coming in for bimmerfest. I am affraid I will be working on the car up until bimmerfest weekend but it will be worth it.

I took the car to Performance Technic in Pleasanton to get the AST 4200's and AR High-Flow Catted downpipes put in. These guys do amazing work and I really like the vibe of their shop. They have a very nice shop and are very transparent with the work on your car.

The install went smoothly and the car feels absolutely amazing. The new coilovers have improved the feel of the vehicle so much. The car feels much firmer than my last set up, yet it feels more comfortable. I am very happy and cannot wait to fully test them out.

This is the second time I have run aftermarket downpipes. The first time I was fully catless, now, I am high-flow catted. The high-flow catted downpipes give me a lot of what I like of the catless downpipes without the smell. They are louder than the stock downpipes, but not too much louder. Throttle response is improved but I have yet to bump the car back up to stage 2+ or try out the E30 maps, so I will write a better review later.



Plenty of nice cars in the lot.



Met up with Venom and Basheezy and watched them install a JB4 G5. I had nothing to contribute to the install.

SparkyBlue came by and picked up the KW coilovers that were coming off the car. Nice to meet another 1addict.

I am very excited and proud to welcome Revozport as a premiere sponsor for this project. They have contributed a full Revozport 1M Raze kit and we will be teaming up to produce some video content of both Einser M and my car. I will post behind the scenes photos when we begin production.

Upon un boxing some of the Revozport stuff I am blown away by how nice their products are. I have owned a lot of carbon fiber products from a lot of companies and I can say Revozport is in the top group. The quality of the weave and finish is perfect.

Because I am replacing all of my current carbon fiber parts, I decided to change the finish and opt for Revozports Satin Finish CF. The Satin finish is very nice and has a very good sheen to it and contrast well with my gloss paint.

I will unbox the rest of the stuff later this weekend.

Revozport 1M Raze Lip
I was attracted to this lip by more than just its looks. The lip has a detachable bottom section which can be adjusted for more or less downforce. The lower section is also a replaceable part which is very nice because lips often tend to explode. The air vents are functional I can later add vents to cool the brakes.

Marco, did you do any conversion of the suspension to 1m in the front? I haven't seen anyone do a front hub swap yet in order to run the new ohlins coilovers.

Im staying on 135i hubs. With changing the brakes in all, it probably would have been a good time to switch to an m3 setup, but I decided against it. The suspension the car is pretty dialed at the moment. My AST's will still work if I decided to switch to M3 rear camber linkers, but im not fully sold on those yet. The suspension feels pretty complete at the moment.
