Not sure if it will fit a 1M however. It IS a BMW OEM part.

Is anyone looking at tune options? There are a couple of flash tunes available for 1M that looks to maintain the curve but give you about an extra 10% HP.

Too early days for me to make a decision either way on a tune..

I am quite happy with the performance.. Might wait till a few hundred kms past the 2K kms service before making a decision on a tune.

BUT the handling around the twisties through Royal National Park is nothing short of breathtaking.. Did a 6am run through this morning while the temps where still nice and low..

thanks i'll have a look, i am not kidding about getting an inferiority complex, my father who now has my 135i rang me last thursday to say he did some research and bought a 'JB4 thingy on the internet' and it will make his car 'blow mine to the weeds' and there are 'youtube vidoes if you dont believe me.' lol

i'd like to see something made specifically for the 1m.

I was going to post earlier as I thought they close certain sections of RNP and surrounding streets from 3ish. Did you receive the many looks and thumbs up from the crowd?

I have 5 ESS Direct flash kits in stock if anyone is interested. Can send anywhere in Australia of course or install here. Very good device, allows you to read and upload the files yourself if you like. It can hold 10 files and you send your requirements directly to ESS for them to send a tuned file back. If your dealer over writes the file, you just re-read the new file, email file over and then ESS will send another tuned file back.
