I think I’m done with the engine mods for a bit.

How's the sounds?? You have a cold air intake as well??

I think not every phone could be placed there. Especially big ones… iPhone 12 Pro Max?

Hat tip to the sll the WDCR-SCCA members who were great hosts, great instructors , and a lot of fun to spend the day with. Learned loads and had a fantastic time.

Special thanks to Bill who took and shared the picture of one of my runs below. Slalom in a Sportwagon - what a blast.

Yes I have an AFE intake. I think there is a bit more noise from the intake with the turbo inlet hose. Feels like it definitely spools up faster. I like the bov because it’s fairly quiet unless you really get into it. My brother in law has a bov on his Focus RS and it’s obnoxious. Yes I do understand it’s a different type valve and his is a manual but it still would drive me nuts

Pipercross filter finally arrived. Intake noise is definitely louder but not obnoxious like the open filters. Stock intake box. Butt dyno is inconclusive.

I just got the measurements from the seller. 16.55cm x 8cm. Seems too tight for a max. Even a pro with a case is pushing it. I might have to go with the LCI retrofit instead

Huge difference coming from the sport line wheel.

staggered on a xdrive is fine as long you stay under the 1% ratio. Big thread about it in the xdrive sub forum.
Although check Kies motorsports YouTube channel he just released a video about it.

Happy to hear that! I got xDrive so planning to go a little lower than that, maybe 1-1,5"

Just got into this F30 335i xDrive 6MT a few weeks ago.
Doing a bunch of maintenance items.
I found out I have two bent rims yesterday. Yippie!
Today, I'm walnut blasting the intake valves.

just be careful, xdrive don't like too much being too low 1.5 probably being the max you could go,however enjoy it its not too firm and handles smoothly.

My F31 came with a staggered set up on X Drive from factory. Plus the increased speed limiter.

Thanks for the heads up!

djacinto · 05-27-2021, 09:14 PM

After a grueling week of doing the 50k maintenance, did a quick wash and installed some spacers!

10f/15r and man am I happy! Wish it was a little more flush in the rear but much better than before!
