***4-19-17 Update: Removed catless downpipe for smog. In nevada we have to pass smog every year. Removed m performance exhaust and replaced with custom muffler/resonator delete.***

How's it going everybody. I've been browsing the forums for quite a while, but never introduced my M235i and I. When the M235i was introduced I knew I had to have it. Started looking at local dealerships in Las Vegas, but it was difficult in late 2014 to find one. I could have built one, but i was impatient. So in February 2015 I sourced out to SoCal for better options. Bought the car at Riverside BMW.

I love the Glacier Silver/Coral Red combo. I haven't seen many around.

Looks great!!

Glad we were a part of this build, still missing an intercooler though

[pimp4cheddar]

Well done! Great list of mods!

[drexplode]

Nicely done!

Any chance you have a before / after feel of the CAI without JB?

Hi Milkee,

Do you think there's room for 18mm spacers in the back?

I didn't feel anything significant. I ran it with map 0. Mostly louder induction noise. I haven't officially dynoed it, but the butt dyno didn't feel any different from stock.

I think its possible, but 15 is already pushing it. I never seen that setup before. Hopefully other members can chime in.

Thanks for sharing the progress. Those parking garage pics are sharp. Time for a rear diffuser on her.

I have a CAI (AFE Magnum) without any tune and no, there's no difference at all in power or feel. Definitely hear the turbo spoil a lot more.

hows the handling with the 15mm spacers? any noticeable difference compared without the spacers?

With the spacers I found the steering feel was a bit heavier (more feel of where the wheels are). I'm not sure if it's just added unsprung weight from the spacers or the wider track. No vibrations at all in low and high speed. It feels good and looks good. Definitely happy with the spacers

After seeing this, am I the only one that wants to see the F22 in laguna seca blue?
