OK, as mentioned the vehicle is a Sapphire black, E82 135i.
It was a September build of 2009, as such it's equipped with a N54 engine and has the 6 speed manual transmission.
I took delivery of the vehicle in November and have since clocked up a little over 18,000 kms.
I had kept it totally stock, up to and including the 15,000 km inspection at the "stealership".
Following that I figured it was about time I unleashed the true potential, of the venerable N54 power plant, haha.
Current installed mods are as follows:
- ER charge pipe with Synapse Synchronic BOV & 2 x meth bungs.
- Stett Performance stage 2 oil cooler kit with 82 degrees Celsius thermostat option.
- Macht Schnell intake charge scoops.
- Dinan carbon fiber cold air intake, with replacement K&N oiled panel filter for factory airbox.
- BMW Performance 338 mm Drilled & Slotted rotors (Front only).
- Hawk High Peformance Street compound brake pads (Front & Rear).
- Goodridge-G-stop Stainless Steel brake line kit.
- Coolingmist Meth Kit with 2.7 gal integrated tank with low level switch, flow sensor, 2 x CM7 injectors.
- Coolingmist CMGS Progressive Meth Controller in 52 mm Silver bezel, Blue display gauge.
- ATI - ePod Steering Wheel Gauge Pod.
- VMR 710's (Gunmetal) 19 x 8.5 & 19 x 9.5, with Yokohama ADVAN Neova AD08 tyres, 225/35R19 & 255/30R19.
- PROcede N54 Professional Version 5 (PnP), with latest Beta 3-30 DIC maps.
With regards lubricants and fluids, the crankcase is now filled with MOTUL 300V Power Racing 5W30 engine oil.
The most recent oil and filter change was done at 16,770 km.
I had previously used Castrol EDGE Sport 5W30.
The first oil and filter change was at 1,500 km.
The second was at a little over 5,000 km and the last oil change with the Castrol EDGE was at 11,141 km.
The transmission oil was replaced with Redline D4 ATF at around 11,500 km.
The brake master cylinder now has a Penrite DOT 4 or SUPER DOT 4 brake fluid.
Not too sure on the above, I will have to check with Dale.
All other lubricants and fluids, are currently the factory fill.
As promised here is a dyno graph of the vehicle, following the installation of Adrian's magical little box, more commonly known as the Vishnu PROcede "tune".
N.B. The below 250.3 rwkw pull, was
without the use of the Coolingmist Meth kit, to be continued...
Cheers,
JD.
