I like what I see. Did you happen to note any weight differences m3 vs E82 center consoles? What are you going to do about the rear vents?

Love the ITBs btw.

Struggles are real. Updated to FIC 650cc injectors and decided to go wild again vs plenum. IMO the car felt more responsive with ITBs anyways!

Any pictures of how you made the Seibon hood vents functional? I take it you cut in OEM M3 hood vents, but how hard was that? Glued to the hood?

Why the injector change?

I dig the ITBs

Story time…

One of the QDs failed on the new fuel line setup I was running. Good news is the car starved and shutdown. Bad news is that injector 7 seals were damaged due to pushing air. I decided to go a little bigger and ensure 100% E85 wouldn’t cause headaches.

I can take more pics but oddly enough the Seibon vents physically land well with the intake box snorkel location (+- some height adjustment). I removed the the cheap metal grills and reused the metal mounting tabs to mount the OEM honeycomb which also serves as the holder for the rubber seals. So far it has held up great with no gluing or hacking.

Which fuel line product was this?

A mess of NRW design for the filter system , PR, Nuke, and lines I made. Oddly enough it was a PR qd but we are still questioning if it was rubbing the firewall thus releasing the disconnect.

Stopping point for now. VMount + functional kidney system next.
