The kit I remember from a few years back gave you a switch to switch the power from the coil to another with sparkplug in the exhaust. Allows at high revs to be switch for a small amount of time before needing to be switch back(otherwise the engine stops)... never tried it ...

Nah just a old Wolf 3D on a CA18det. Ive got the controller mounted on the steering column....only takes a few seconds to hit all the buttons:D

You just reminded me of a question I was going to ask a while ago.....safc, f-con, power fc are these all replacement ECU's ??

and what does safc stand for or is that the brand name???

I think SAFC stands for Super Air Fuel Controller... correct me if i am wrong. made by Apexi

Works,

I would have thought that the amount of unburnt fuel would have to be quite high to get flames, what do you think? Does this mean these car are running too rich, or do you think that it always gets that rich between gear changes?

No cat, that's naughty, did you bother trying to make it look like it has one or not? I'm going to loose my cat also, but thought I'd put a fake cover to make it look like it was still there.

See'ya:burnout:

i wanna get rid of my cat as well

is it better to gut my cat?

and then put it back in

or just by a catout pipe and just bolt that in place of cat

then if i get called to the pits just bolt the cat back in place?

    • Wow ELVIS. You have an....interesting approach to conversation. Did you not notice that I wasn't talking to you?
    • Hello Liam - HA - somewhere in flies - possibly I have an update, but I have been so busy, projects have taken a back seat to getting business back on track.  I will let you know the outcome, but I think I am going to go for the 8HP,  CHEERS.  ELVIS
    • Thanks Joshuaho96, yes - as someone else also suggested, the 8HP seems the 'smart choice' - HA - and ZERO to do with cost, but I am sure 8 speeds will be better than 6 speeds - HA - maybe.  I will purchase a new 8HP,  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Nobody said anything about getting a "...cheap Falcon box..."- it was JUST a question about a specific transmission.  And YOU may have a problem with not enough $ - HA - I do NOT - so please keep your comments like you are some financial guru to yourself.  BUT - much appreciated re the cost of a new 8HP and I twill probably be the way I go.  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Most people I know in the BMW world are swapping 6HPs for 8HPs. The 6HP has a big issue with one of the clutch drum bushings wearing out shockingly early which leads to them going into limp mode going into 5th/6th gear as the oil pressure loss from the worn bushing causes clutch slip. Even with the adaptations in shifting the TCU can't bump line pressure enough to keep the clutches from slipping and burning. I've personally looked at a 335d with 6HP28 with one owner and ~90k miles on it and the transmission adaptations were way out of spec and even though it nominally drove ok I'm confident it would have needed a full rebuild sooner than later. Other than that they're fine, but the 8HP doesn't really have weird issues like this to my knowledge and they're in everything these days so pulling them out of crashed cars isn't too hard.
