FastActionJax's Melourne Red 328i Build Thread.

FastActionJax · 12-13-2018, 02:22 PM

Hey Whats up guys, I figured I'd start a build thread since my car is coming together quicker than expected, Once I started I just couldnt stop myself lol.

Does anyone have these springs? I've always liked AFE's products but couldnt find much info on these, Regardless I thought I'd give them a shot

Great car and a great Christmas gift which is unlikely to be returned in the spring (pun intended of course). One of the better looking Red vehicles on the road.

FastActionJax · 01-22-2019, 11:18 AM

Lowered on Afe control Springs!
I also installed the new Turner Motorsports intercooler over the weekend and Flashed to Bootmod3 stage 2! car is a beast now, and heat dissipation is great with the new intercooler!

It was actually a breeze to install and gave me no trouble what so ever! Total install time was about 1.2 hours with proper tools and ramps.

FastActionJax · 01-26-2019, 02:24 PM

Finally Wrapped my roof black! It changed the whole look of the car.

FastActionJax · 02-02-2019, 10:53 AM

yay! and everyone said 275's would be too big.

FastActionJax · 03-07-2019, 11:05 AM

Got the Rohana's and KW DDC's!

Gorgeous wheels love the color

That's gonna look great.

Did you get tired of the AFE springs already?

Doyvidlah · 03-07-2019, 11:59 AM

Awesome car. I have a 6mt as well!

Can you expand on the following:

Clutch Spring Removal
BMS Bumpstop
Clutch Delay Delete

What do each of these do? Would you recommend?
