Here's a shot just then, it's a bit dark.

I assume car won't dose as mad as it did with the Hypergear ATR45SAT 6+6 VL ulleh spec cast compressor, but fast is best.

Dose all comes down to the intake pipe. 

Man I miss the way mine used to flutter. 

Actually got told one day I really should remove the atmospheric BOV before another copper defects me for it... Full boost shifts used to sound like those stupid obnoxious atmo BOVs. 

Low boost shifts, or just rolling on and off the throttle used to make some nice long slow flutters... Mmmmm flutter...

Yes and no :)

GTX compressor wheels (and similar) don't dose as well as 6+6 wheels.

Ever heard any car with a GTX wheel dose mad? Never lol

So when the tuner askes me what my goals are in relation to boost, my answer should be.....MAD DOSE....

Proper dose brings us together as people.

Lek Shu baby, got some new Nissan coil packs and a new loom. As @WantGTR would say, it's "kinda cute".

Couldn't hear the dose?

Turbosmart 50mm single gate, should be plenty for this heap of shit car. Fitted up 4AN fittings and running teflon lines from the gate to the Turbosmart 4x port solenoid, all wired up to the Halalkebabtech.

Wish I never starting building this heap of shit and bought a BMW.

Anyhow, if anyone needs Turbosmart products, you know who to ask. I can get anything from their range at a competitive price :)

Look at the neat tool lay out.

My tools live in a couple of boxes which get tipped out to find stuff.

I keep thinking about what car I want next, I don't have a clue though, it does need to go around corners well, and be RWD, and manual......I'm a idiot.......

I get angry and yell at tools if I can't find them lol, hence they're all laid out nicely lolol.

BMW m235i :)

Oh, that looks good.

I am scared of the reliability factor, BMW's were rubbish when I was growing up, poor after sales and blindingly expensive for parts and to service.

I was told if I really wanted one to buy it new and then sell it before the warranty ran out.

Have things changed?

Nope

in fact talking to someone who works at a bmw dealership every time one comes in for service they can send it out with an essay of repairs that are required

    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
    • Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.
    • My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
