Keep me posted, if I had local support for meth/water injection I'd have it already too. I hear great things about this new kit
24th of March.
I got my Downpipes and Intercooler from Mike and it took about a week to arrive.
You are gonna love the DCI. They are loud and yes prepare yourself for woooooooooooooooooosssssshhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!
When I went to the dyno sometime last year I had the JB3 and DCI and I disabled JB3 just to get a basline dyno figure and it pulled 205rwkw stock. I was amazed because everyone baselines 190-195rwkw so I can only blame the DCI for the extra air.
I'm in the same boat. S!!T all support for meth except for Terry.

I'm currently doing some testing for Turbosmart with there newly developed bov's and they sound awesome. There putting together atmospheric and recirculating bov's for the 135/335. At the moment I have the atmoshpheric bov's on and together with DCI and 15psi it sounds nice.

Yeh i'm starting to lose my patience. I just checked, it was actually the 21 March! First time I've ordered something without tracking, I thought I wouldn't need it. I'm looking forward to the new sound track

That's way too long, something must've gone wrong! Mine took about a week to arrive at my doorstep.

The sound is very pronounced during heavy acceleration, and you even get the slight blowoff sound as the dump valves work. Very cool.

Being the tight-ass that I am I ordered it without shipping to save me a few bucks I had no idea it would take this long though. Mike@N54 just got back to me, he said there's nothing he can do because there's no tracking and all we can do is wait. He also told me the longest a shipment has ever been delayed is 4 weeks so we'll see what happens. Can't wait for the new sound-track though, I bet it sounds even better in cooler weather.

That's always the way. Just when we think were buying smart we get screwed somehow.

I'm actually not a fan of open air filters but as the weather is cooling down now I'm starting to appreciate the DCI.

Lol you guys are really rubbing it in! I just hope it gets here by the weekend. Install should take me about 20-30 minutes max. Anyone interested in a BMS drop in filter?

I don't really like how they look either, sorta out of place and un-BMW like. However, 99% my bonnet is down and I'm in the driver's seat, so all I need to do is appreciate the sound

Doesn't really give power gains with stock power, but should help as you up the psi.

I actually got to hear it for the first time OUTSIDE the car. Sounds like a jet-fighter blasting past.

AAAAHHHHHH Jeef your rubbing it in for BMW86.
I was gonna say it sounds like a Formula 1 car.
I also hate the look of it. Definitely doesn't go with the rest of the engine components.
And friday the temps are gonna hit a low 10 degrees. Car loves that cool air. Have to go for a drive at about 2-3am.

I don't mind giving your 135 a little love. Actually I'll give it a boot full of love until your foot heels. Just let me know when you want me to take it for a spin.

And ain't it hilarious Temps are quite low in the evenings now already, so your car must feel monstrous with FMIC as well. Can't be too great for traction on RFTs though.

The aFe and Injen kits look a lot better, but I could not justify spending 5x the amount for something I never see anyway. The BMS works just as well if not better due to lack of extra piping.

The FMIC does feel good especially up top. As an intake the BMS is the best bang for buck intake I just wish it was shielded a little more.
