When done properly and with a s65 gts tune on the gearbox it really wakes the car up and in a lighter more nimble chassis like the e82 it has to be experienced, it makes the s65 manual box feel like a dinosaur.

Thinking satin black was the right choice

Six Pot · 01-12-2022, 07:57 AM

Still waiting for parts but rear subframe is ready and engine is prepped! Ordered some SPL bits, BMS Pan and AFE Sways. Something big coming , may wait to show that

Six Pot · 02-20-2022, 11:02 AM

Last of the pieces coming together. Thinking she may at least roll here in a week!

Six Pot · 02-26-2022, 08:29 PM

Should be coming together over the next couple days. Finally got all the EDC and booster brackets in.

Long tube noises 😈

CarJunkie · 03-13-2022, 10:57 PM

I can't picture how that long tube header will clear the bodywork . . .

Will be tight, but might be cheapest way to solve for custom exhaust setup of shorter wheelbase chassis: https://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1306778

Will definitely give more options and sound crazy. Sadly little hp gains until I go fi

Six Pot · 03-15-2022, 10:58 PM

Was a tight fit but she is in. Down hill from here…

WrathOTM · 03-16-2022, 06:19 AM

Damn...I legit didn't think that was going to fit with that header set up. Pretty badass to see that I'm wrong.
Now, uh, the crash/bumper bar is going to fit right back in place too?

And the radiator...

Should all fit in the OEM locations with no problems , just waiting for some DO88 goodness so we can replace the old coolers.

Forgot to show off the cooling line upgrades from DO88. Not sure what else I can replace lol

Six Pot · 03-16-2022, 12:20 PM

More Header shots 😍

CarJunkie · 03-16-2022, 05:49 PM

Sexy!!

Six Pot · 03-20-2022, 09:36 PM

DCT Service completed , shame you will never see the mecha pan again 😢. Mporium shield came and decided to get some meaty sways.

CarJunkie · 03-21-2022, 04:52 PM

Not sure if I have shown the interior updates 😂

Six Pot · 03-27-2022, 07:29 PM

DO88 Big Pack came in with the new driveshaft. I officially have all the parts to get her back together!

WrathOTM · 04-11-2022, 03:40 AM

Looking mighty nice, any updates?

We are getting close, it's cranking at least 😂. Now it's time to start plugging in modules and eliminate 100+ errors. Another causality was an axle , lucky someone in Texas had a new one!

CarJunkie · 04-13-2022, 07:55 PM

How did that happen to the axle?
