Re: Giving up the Bimmer for something faster.......? Take a ride in a Evo6.5 TME. My friend drives an Evo6.5 TME with a Tomei Derive engine. Still running stock turbo at 1.6bar. Enough to make you cream yourself.. Still would cost less than your CI i guess.. and quite comfortable too.

Re: Protecting the rubber coating on the centre console Lousy material. Scratch abit, peel. FED UP man. Ive given up. Someone even ashed his cigarette on mine in the rear cause he thought the cigarette ash tray was open and he missed. drunk fcuker... E90 out liao! hahahaha

I was just wondering if this was isolated to my car alone so i decided to post and find out. :) When i rev to say 6500rpms on 1st and shift to 2nd, the rev would drop to around 5000rpms and rise all the way again in 2nd. Then shift to 3rd and it drops again by say an average of...

Re: Opinions.. Yea thats the thing. Expensive dyno time and labour here in Perth, WA. Hmm maybe i will have to dyno after all hahaha Can someone confirm with me the diameter of the stock valvetronic exhaust system? 2 inches right?

I just managed to get, along with the CAI, a full exhaust system. So the mech said that the stock Valvetronic exhaust system is a single 2 inch pipe all the way with a cat in the middle and then a resonator and then finally the muffler. Can anyone confirm this? So therefore he...

Re: Crashed E90 The black tapes are a give away not considering the fact that all the other sorrounding cars in the yard are BMW's as well?

Re: E90 really a better car? If im not mistaken, E46's with build date after March or April 04 come with the same engine as the E90. Its the N46 Valvetronic. "If im not mistaken!" Heh

Im running rich now due to some recent additions to the car.. and running no cat. Theres black smoke coming out of the exhaust.. So anyhow, am considering some form of chipping or piggyback for tuning. Was just wondering, does SAFC-II work on BMW's DME? How good is this -->...

Re: New custom Cold air intake.. Hydro lock fears.. jaskin: Yea.. was thinking of getting a sock instead of a valve like the AEM one.. Either ways, a guy on the dtmpower.net forums is running an exact same setup as me and he tested it one day when there were torrential rainfalls. After...

Re: New custom Cold air intake.. Hydro lock fears.. Whiskey Tango: Thanks alot.. yseterday like.. quite kia si man when driving home in the rain.. Maybe ill pop off the filter and have a look at the MAF later and see if any apparent damage.. If there is, or periodically when it rains, then...

Re: How good is !@#@!)#&!@#@!)#&!@#@!)#& Air filter? I just did mine today with a K&N Filter although what i did was slightly different. Mine looks kinda like that The engine bay with the metal tubing going down.. The front bar with the filter THe front bar with the...

I just installed a new cold air intake today.. Custom.. Its just a metal pipe out from the MAF and going down to the brake duct, which is next to the M-TechII front bar fog light and the K&N Pod filter sits there.. So anyhow, im beginning to wonder.. if it rains, and water splashes...

Re: Improve Stereo System I honestly like MB Quart... No one has recommended it though... hehe.. but i like them.. I've got the MB Quart Discus line and the premium line and honestly, to my regular ear, both sound the same.. So probably just go for the Discus line? And a regular...

Re: Automatics back sun shade There are many 3rd party brands that use wireless remote style although the lenght and fitment might not be perfect. My friend has one that he bought in an accesory shop in malaysia. Lemme know ifu want more details :)

Re: How to get more power Misunderstood... my bad.. :)

Re: How to get more power I dont think so... it also depends on the model of the WRX. Some MY99 WRX's can hold it strong until close to 190 - 200km/h then they max out. Pre MY00 WRX's come with different gearboxes as the MY02(Bugeye) onwards. Albeit the gearing on the Bugeye and...

Just to seek an opinion cause no one else on any of the other boards, like us and europe boards know of the valvetronic.. The following are a list of mods im contemplating in the next week or so... - Cold air intake that puts the filter next the my foglight on the M-TechII bodykit -...

Can someone direct me as to where i can buy this and get it sent to Australia? Im studying here. :) A price would be good too. :)

aiyoo... hehehe any help on what search keys to use? I tried searching for "Valvetronic" but got alot of maintenance threads

I've tried searching but come up with mostly nothing. Are there any mods that people have tried on the Valvetronic out of the regular circle(exhaust, air filter) like camshafts, piggyback tuning, superchargers?
