Don't know sorry. i just used it on the basis that it matches the F80 calipers and works with the balance calcs supplied by Slon Workshop

So a bit of maintenance and a bit of bling...

I ordered the CarboProject CF plenum as part of the group buy and planned to replace throttle actuators with the upgraded Rebuild.org items while the plenum was off.



I'd read a few stories of what a pain the job is but this simple flex tool made plenum removal pretty straightforward.



The throttle actuators are buried in the valley and take a bit of work to get to



Combined with an AFE CF intake the result was worthwhile



The plenum looks good and definitely adds some nice sound. I doubt it adds any performance but that wasn't really the point...

Some video from 2020 Euro Day track session. These aren't hot laps so there's a fair bit of traffic (& apologies for the crappy video- it was just shot on my 'nav' phone to capture the sound). Mic is on the sun visor.

Saw the updates on build from Brintech and great to see a Brisbane car.

Hope to kick off a similar build. Cheers

Sorry to review an old thread. First, awesome build. Second - where did you source the mirrors from? Have tried from Schmiedmann in Denmark - told on prolonged backorder. BMW Aus wanting AUD$2500 for the set and also prolonged backorder.

Yep was a bit steep!

In the end - Schmiedmann got them shipped to me - still weren't cheap but definitely less than what BMW Aus wanted.
