ianf, more than happy to code your car mate. Really sorry I got caught up and got to advan a little late on Sat, was really looking forward to seeing your car and put a face to a screen name!

The N54 pipes have some bad bends in them, rather get N55/aftermarket pipes. The advantage of MadDad's are they are a slightly larger diameter than the N55's

Cool, when you back from Melbourne? I will PM you a list of coding requests

I must've missed your delivery thread Ian- congrats on the new car! Seems not that long ago you were only deliberating about selling your 135! I'm sure the wait was worth it!

Oh, and yes, folding mirrors does get the ladies' attention

bwahaha! Props to Luster

Ian///M · 03-04-2012, 09:13 PM

Doesn't do the true sound justice... better when driving than sitting revving

Zuzu · 03-04-2012, 09:26 PM

Nice one Ian..

We will have to give them a side by side showdown at the Dyno Day on the 25th, unless we catch up earlier..

oystero · 03-05-2012, 07:20 AM

Cool, plenty cops that way too. Enough photo shoots, should organize a drive in a few weekends time perhaps.

The car continues to amaze me with its sublime handling & performance.... simply breathtaking... my pulse rate certainly escalates big time

Congrats on the car Ian. Looks awesome.

I was a doubter before, but converted. Not what you'd call cheap though!

I hope I somehow contributed to this

I was afraid you were going to get the wheel instead

When you open the box and see how high quality the product is and the fact that OEM materials were used (which also push up the price) you will see the value in it. I don't think any improvements can be made to the quality.

Plus you can't put a price on the values it measures, maybe a whole engine replacement in an extreme scenario

I reinstalled my charge pipe the other day, started up the car and noticed straight away the there was a massive boost leak somewhere - according to my P3 gauge. Popped the hood and realised I forgot to reconnect my boost vacuum line! Simple mistake but huge consequences, especially if I didn't pick up on it for a while.

This gauge has saved me from my own foolish mistakes many times, I'm glad I have it.

I hear if you get the special Vinney edition it can even serve you beer!

BMW Electronic PW is too $$ and looks aftermarket and clumsy. Lights up like an Xmas tree. Also heard that the Alcantara does wear well.

Yeah I like alcantara and the BMW Performance Steering Wheel but I would get the non electric one as those light are too much!
