This exactly, the car sees varied loads every day during its normal life. There is nothing special happening during the first 1200miles. Old world ābed inā thoery is just dogma now. Our manufacturing, materials, and engineering tolerances have removed the roughness and inconsistency of a guy out...
Surgical Huck is what pros use on glass, the cost of true āno lintā cotton is too high for the volume of rag a detail shop needs and will begin to lint eventually.

Anyone here have experience with JB4 on 93oct with stock DP or high flow catted DP and hybrid turbo?
Trying to understand how insanely dangerous a custom JB4 map and turbo swap (Remnant maybe) would be.
No meth, no eblends or port.
If this worked (hopium), what would the expected driving...
Ditto, looking for the same info.
@tadda did you / will you go back to stock?
I only have the eventuri intake and xhp flash so easy to swap but looking for opinions.
Availability is a function of cost.
Quality is a function of cost.
I define OEM design as a function of quality, and would only deviate to aftermarket if the component is robust and cost effective.
Iām not saying swapping all the B58TU2 stuff will be cheaper (if it were possible)
I am trying...
Me personally, locked ecu with no intentions of using piggy back controllers. You folks act like everyone has unlimited funds and and interest in 800+hp.
A lot of us are looking to maximize OEM+ capabilities. Direct parts swapping upgrades. āBolt onsā
Interested if the factory port injection...
What is it with automotive aftermarket that just cannot be honest? So many fly-by-night snake oil salesmen, feels completely at odds with the age of the internet and instant information sharing...
I was in the bike world before this and have never experienced this level of nonsense from...
@zrk when does the injector become the constraint?
In my ideal land of not having a locked ecu, my goal is 600ish without port/meth on remnantās kit. Will the stock hpfp/injectors make 600whp on 93? Would this hpfp eek out enough to run 100% e85 @ 600?

Quoted 7k for full Xpel ppf (Boston), iām doing it myself since I am a hobbyist at paint correction and this isnāt a difficult job just time consuming.
If only the GRMN Supra would be produced at these M2 quantities, the S58 is worth the additional cost for the significant power overhead it offers but I prefer our body lines by far!
For posterity, ā21 A91 with almost 30,000 miles and I go my 5,000 mile oil change intervals with very spirited street driving while stock with no measured oil loss.
Folks balking at 1qt/1,000 miles weren't around for the S85. (Wish I broke mine in myself)
Knowing its a touchy subject as far as...
Thanks! I coded the car for the longest button presses it could (child proofing) and had never thought to hold the button down long enough to find this!
Always learning cool stuff from folks playing with the coding, anyone know of you can control windows from the fob? The e60 could window down on unlock and hold and window up on lock and hold, was glorious!
I keep hearing this rumor but folks havenāt been clear. Is this a state-side clone or an obd unlock? State-side clone is barely helpful, taking a $6,000 two week process to a $6,000 one week process.
Agreed that modifications reduce value in most cases, not here to flip cars, I would add some context to that definition.
Could be my spoiled expectation that being able to editing something I own is inherent.
I have no problem paying ecutek for the licensing of their software, or tuners and...
Every thread promising unlocking that fizzles out will become a blue ball thread. While there were no guarantees at purchase many of us have had our plans dashed, tough pill to swallow at $60k.
I personally have my line in the sand, I wonāt spend thousands on non-value-add services like...
