LeMans Blue PS2 135i > 1M Conversion

bylkylov · 08-05-2020, 03:55 AM

Another boring 135i to 1M conversion...

This is my second 135i and I've always wanted to do the conversion because I'm not a big fan of how 135i looks, especially the front.

So in the period of owning this car for about a year now I got rear ended 3 times lol. The third time looked pretty bad and I decided to go with something I wanted for a long time - giving it a 1M look because I think the car deserves it.

It's a 2012 car with N55 and DCT transmission and I can't be happier with this combo. In May the car put down 479 whp and 438 wtq on a mustang dyno.

Mod list:

Performance:

Pure Stage 2 turbo
Tuned by Wedge Performance
XDI-35 upgraded HPFP
GFB Diverter valve
Pure Inlet
7” VRSF intercooler
VRSF turbo outlet
BMS catch can
Injen intake
VRSF chargepipe
VRSF catless downpipe
N20 3.5bar TMAP
Fuel-it! Stage2 525 Bucketless LPFP
Upgraded all fuel lines
Ethanol content analyzer

Front F-Series blue M-Sport brake kit with EBC Yellow stuff pads.
SS Brake lines

Transmission:

Flywheel from the M4
SSP 900 Clutches

Suspension:

Basically all the M3 arms
Mfactory LSD
Ohlins R&T
Swift springs
Ground control camber plates
Cobb front & rear sway bars
Solid rear subframe bushings
Diff brace

Did you modify your stock headlights or is that an aftermarket purchase?

Which options did you choose when you had them built? Those are killer!

houtan · 08-25-2020, 01:15 PM

Looking forward to your progress.

Did you go with the 340 or 370mm f30 brakes?

Also, any logs of your dyno runs or 3rd gear pulls?

khoa@x-ph.com · 08-25-2020, 02:20 PM

Nice. Looking forward to see your finished build.

Vision retrofit, satin blackout, eyebrow switchback, new outer lenses and had replaced the corner light lenses (the inner plastic ones). Yeah it makes the car look so much better from the front!

Slowly getting some progress done. Car is currently at its final stage of being prepped for paint. Relocated the Evap canister in the meantime in order to fit a custom quad exhaust.

bylkylov · 09-10-2020, 11:35 PM

Painted! Assembly starts next week 😌

bylkylov · 09-12-2020, 04:43 PM

Came out better than I expected! Was hesitant about the wheels combo when I got them, super happy how it worked out!

Yeineken · 09-12-2020, 07:56 PM

That fresh paint looks great!
