I got 4.73 on some 80° tires on a 55° night. It's already colder in Michigan so I'm struggling for traction. Today was better... But I think I can get low 4's 0-60 and low 12's 1/4 mile. I'm getting better tires for sure. Mine aren't an ideal brand and were sent to me already on my wheels by mistake. Wrong brand.

Should've mentioned, my 4.2s was on E30 map. Got around 4.5 on stage 2 93 octane. I should try the launch control, I'm scared I'll break something, lol. I'm also xDrive so there might be some difference. With xHP I should do better, I'm sure it's hitting the torque limiter right now.

Clever...maybe could use vinyl wrap also to make it vanish that would closely match?

Wow. Just paid $25k for a 2015 435i with 55k single owner all receipts and minty loaded with everything but leds and active suspension...took awhile and was really trying to find a 340i loaded....but this should be fun for awhile. Always have to go out of State it seems. Specific colors and opti9ns are about impossible to find.

Is your suspension stock TS? Drop looks lower than normal 19s.

Removed the spoiler and added an Ikon diffuser. It takes some finessing to get it, but every clip and body bolt went back in. Definitely would be easier with 2 people. I'd still buy it again.

Didn't want the mesh so I left it off purposely even though you can see the battery box on the right. I might paint it dark black inside there.

Congrats man! The car is looking sick. I have a 435i m sport and am running bm3 stage 1 91.. I want to upgrade fmic and cp but was seeing some threads that were starting to worry me. Does your ER cp slip off your VRSF fmic or have you been solid since the installation?

10/2020 traded for 2015 435i m sport w/32k

Full 435i mod list:

BM3 stage 2 93oct
VRSF downpipe
VRSF 5" stepped fmic
Evolution Racewerks charge pipe
Bilstein b14 coilovers
Stoptech slotted rotors
Akebono ceramic pads
Ferrada fr2 19" staggered bronze wheels
Conti dws06 plus 235/35 265/30
Ikon matte black diffuser/ front splitter wings
matte black fender wings
KG matte black side/rear extensions
