I went from a stock and very distinctive ZHP 18" wheel on our E46 down to a 17" Apex Arc8 wheel since our roads are so bad. Guess which wheels get more compliments...

i have to replace the wiring harness.

from removing my jb+ a million times, the tMAP wire has been cut, and is starting to short.

I bought some pigtails and will be putting it under the knife next weekend. Also got a new tmap sensor and realized the last guy Stripped the damm bolts. So looks like im taking the engine apart. Might put the stage2 diverter valve in.

Removed brake duct covers on my 230i Msport THP. Not sure why they were on. The ducts were full of fall leaves. Since set up is so close to the M240i and the covers aren't on my buddy's 240, thought I'd give it a try and see if there is more or less brake dust and if it affects the turbos.

Clear_Blue22 · 12-05-2018, 05:15 PM

Replaced the rear diffuser on my 2018 230i with an Mperformance M240i diffuser along with the Dinan M240i exhaust. Installed the Mperformance front lip and carbon spoiler as well. Dinan springs went on last week while I waited for the front and rear diffusers to be painted.

First wash in a month after a buff and wax last month. Weather has been crap every few days and haven't been able to keep her clean. At least she looks good for now.

I've got the exact same tires on my 2017 M240i and they are working great so far, we already have about a foot of snow here in Newfoundland!

SteveInfante · 12-11-2018, 10:29 AM

Traded the 228i in with 83267 miles in for a loaded minus M Sport/ HIDs CPO 328xi F31 wagon.

Wagons rule FTW! Welcome to the club. BMW announced that the new G 3 wagon will not be coming here, the F31 will be the last one!

Thanks! Wagons do rule. I'm loving it so far. I transferred my tune and drop in filter to the new car since it has the N20 in it as well. Made a big difference with the 8 speed.

Sweet! We have Dinan S1 on ours along with an AFE filter. I have an MPE in the garage but we went back to stock to eliminate a major whine that developed after install - my mother was whining that the car was too loud so we switched back.

I don't remember if you mess around with AV at all but if you're looking for a sub shoot me a PM I found a great vendor in Poland that makes an enclosure that sits in the storage area at the left of the trunk (where the first aid kit would go).

I think I will do a resonator delete like I did on the 2er. That sub enclosure sounds interesting. As long as it doesn't take away any cargo space. I use my wagon as my mobile detailing rig for my detailing business. I did the muffler mod as well and it was just right. I'm going to link up with a friend and do some coding.

Lose maybe 2" of floor space in the bump out area - no real usable space lost.

Had mine off for a couple of years now and they do reduce the amount of brake dust but not eliminate it. I'm sure it helps keep the brakes cooler too.

Eventuri N20 CF intake.

That's pretty nice. Does it run off the stock amp? I only have the Hi-Fi system and not the HK. I need one of those cargo mats too.

No I added a JL amp and remote, you can either:

1: upgrade stock amp and feed signal from there
2: get TechnicPNP add a sub harness - from there you can feed to amp

The liner is great, adding the sub just FYI requires you to slightly trim the wing of the liner.

Ours is HiFi, Bimmertech speakers and ghosts, Bimmian amp then sub is JL amp and 10" Focal. Chose speaker based on box.

I swapped my black forged wheels for stock wheels with winter tires. Looks wise it is a step backwards - so no pix!

Been on an alcantara trip lately. Door trims to break up the expanse of plastic, sun visors to replace the stupid health-n-safety stickers ones which are functional but a bit thin, heater and gearstick surround to soften the dashboard. Makes a nice difference, and gives the rather dour cabin - my only real gripe about the F22 - a nice lift!
