None of these parts will ever be available locally. And yeah the shipping hurts.
I have a gurney flap on the way to test for now. If kamispeed ever decide to ship it since it's been 3 weeks already.
A little bit later down the line (3-4 months) I'll be swapping out the wing for something more...
Thanks bud
I don't think so man. It was about 8 degrees there. I think to make that comment you need to be familiar with both the wing itself since AoA isn't a blanket thing and the track/layout.
of course you might know better than me, but in that case what's the rationale behind your...
Here are some pics with the whole car in frame. on 18" wheels wrapped in 295/30 CRS tires
Front: 332mm
Rear: 343mm
I'm very likely going to lower the car a bit more this week to something like this:
Front: 320mm
Rear: 330mm
So i'm sticking with the 10mm rake, but lowering the car ever so slightly.
Already have my OEM hood properly vented so not looking to replace it anytime soon. But I'm sure I will one day, and when that day comes, Its going to have to: 1) have good vents in the right places and 2) actually be significantly lighter than OEM.
Right now I don't see a lot of good options...
I am by all accounts an understanding customer. Racebred told me they forgot something with my order and would need a few extra weeks. No problem, shit happens. Alcon was 5 weeks late with my order before i said uhh guys?
So let's say i shouldn't give DAW grief for their lack of diligence here...
Ok so this is actually pretty hilarious. We barely got the car ready in time for the last piece. It was a mad rush post accident to get the oem parts painted and on, the new arms, wheels etc....We also put an air dam on because the APR spitter comes without one, and that was far from ideal...
Yeah that's why i asked....because Sam like to run a bit more boost on pump than i'm comfortable with. Far be it from me to challenge Sam, as he clearly knows his shit, but i personally don't understand his logic. He also likes more meth than eth. Again confusing to me.
- radiator/ hear exchanger same thing
- don't need a HPFP if you're going PI
- verus doesn't make a trans cooler. Maybe you mean oil cooler? Always a good buy on practically any car
- 6769 is overkill for a 700 build
Yeah i'm fine with the turbo itself. People (understandably) have issues with the owner, but their turbos, especially the newer ones have been fine. Spent some time on the BMW forums doing some reading there.
Was the Ultraflow X changed at any point? The one i bought says "new gen"
Lol no I already paid for the turbo. The next day they told me that they're going to need up to 4 weeks to ship. There was no mention of a backorder the product page, so I asked if they could cancel my order and refund me. They said nope. I'm ok with the turbo, not so much with the timeline.
DAW told me to go pound sand.
Racebred also reached out and told me that my splitter is going to be late because they found out that they missed my air dam. This is why you get work done during the off-season folks.... All good though. These things happen, and the racebred team has been nice...
The one i purchased is the Ultra Flow X, which is supposedly rated for 820whp. That's a lot more than i want considering my use case. Currently making 685whp on E20 and methanol with the pure800. When all is said and done i'd like to settle on a figure slightly higher than that, and with more...
