Finally figured out a couple tuning things which made the car pretty consistent.

Headers, MILVS & the MAF delete are finally working together. Runs like it should now and doesn't run out of steam nearly as quickly

Sure thing. It's a little rough around the edges up close, but it is metal, which is nice.

I should mention that, because our grill slats curve down and back a bit, I put a little super glue behind the badge, rather than cranking it down really hard. I have extra grills, so it isn't a big deal to "waste" one if I don't like it.

No business-savvy individual would fault their constituents for not liking their products, that's just a terrible way to say, "we suck, you paid for it, too bad.".

Also German courts require an agreement from both parties, this is standard in most countries' laws.

I'm way too ballsy (not a great thing in some cases lol) so I'd probably screenshot this whole ordeal and post about it to warn future purchasers of his products.



Looks like a great time! And damn 7-1ers in one spot must be a miracle!
This brings up an interesting problem with situations like this here in the US. The crap legislation called the DMCA is going to be something we all will be dealing with in one form or another with any software in our cars. There's been some instances of OEs making it impossible to get servicing of their products through indies requiring you to go to the dealership. John Deere is just one example.

JD is one of the worst examples, they're completely taking advantage of their client base and assuming they aren't computer-savvy enough to work it out. There's whole campaigns to crack the JD systems now.

Fortunately there's also a movement in the corporate world to maintain a more socially-responsible attitude by keeping things open-source or at least self-serviceable. Businesses are wising up to the fact that you need to keep people happy to keep customers around now, there's just so many options out there. Unfortunately JD is the name of the game for those machines but most other industries are doing much better. A full-blown open source CPU was just announced recently, pretty exciting stuff.

BPC? How are you liking it? And MAF delete - what is the benefit?

One thing I noticed with my BPC tune especially on track is that it is VERY hard to add just a touch of throttle. It seems like if I breathe on the pedal, I‘m getting 1/8th throttle or more. Then the next chunk of pedal travel gets me essentially nothing. The most consistent feedback I got from my instructor was to be smooth getting on the throttle but it seems impossible. Interested in what you’re seeing with your car related to throttle response.

Throttle mapping is adjustable- might want to ask them to smooth it out a touch/make it more linear for you instead of the often employed aggressive throttle maps that are used.

BimmerLabs thru Hassmachine. A man can't afford BPC

So far so good! It's running strong and really fast now lol.

Basically the MAF delete is bringing the N52 back to it's purest euro form. A lot of them over there run only an IAT instead of the hybrid IAT-MAF the US got. So the motor runs a bit smoother.

https://www.e90post.com/forums/showpost.php?p=23688608&postcount=2034

Also check out how much area is freed up with the much smaller IAT.

I'll let you know on my reports for throttle response, still letting adaptations and fuel trims reset. So far it is a little touchy lol but i dunno if Hass' changed anything there

You have my attention... This all sounds very intriguing. And fun.

Share the part numbers for the storage tray- I'm thinking that's a great christmas present...


This afternoon I installed the 15mm spacers in the front, and 10mm in the rear. Exact results I wanted to achieve! Very happy. Pics will have to be later on, it's raining like the big dog here....

Why the odd spacer arrangement? Between the Dinan camber plates and the Indy 500's being stock width & running narrow, I needed to push out the fronts more than stock suspension setup would require. Really, the fronts could fit 20mm and the rears could pull off 15mm easily, but I plan on going wider tire both front and rear- so saving room for later

What iddy biddy hydroflask is that? All I can store in there is eyeglasses!

Awesome pics.
So glad you made it!
My sister's SC vacation was cancelled. Not because the beachhouse was battered (though it probably took a bit of a beating,) but because the roads through NC they use to get there from central MD were all closed.
