Time for a nice battery replacement. Can shave good weight in the rear.
So today I installed my downpipe intake and charge pipe. It was a pain in my A@#, Until I found a couple of little tricks I didn't know. To take the clips off you have to pop the tab out then push it down a little then it'll slide ride out. I wish I paid someone else to do this, But if you want the best work do it yourself. My advice to you would be 1. get a new DP gasket 2. Buy a new ventilation hose line 3. Use a proper lift like me 4. Take the exhaust off to remove downpipe 5. Try your best to stay calm after you burn your hands 9999 times. I work as an assistant European car specialist mainly Porsche and I'm a dumb 16-year-old soooooo what do I know?
Literally how. I did it drunk af on jackstands at 2am and it took no time at all.So today I installed my downpipe intake and charge pipe.

Glad you got it goin. But yeah, all bimmers are like that. Low battery causes all sorts of shit. Should clear right up when you get some decent charge in it.
No offense meant but idk how this got so complicated for you. There is ZERO reason you should have had to remove the entire exhaust. Also just because I’m curious how do you afford this car at 16 years old? When I was 16 I had an old pos, I think that makes you the youngest owner which I thought was @MasonSo today I installed my downpipe intake and charge pipe.

Well, I work as an assistant Porsche mechanic in New Rochelle NY. I am 16. My dad and I went 50/50 on the car.
I got my numbers done from @Jesse DaBears recently and the Supra pulls strong. Very happy. I do about 65 miles daily, (mainly highway), in this triple digit Texas heat. Car is super quick and I still average 23MPG. On weekends, I do a lot of pulls and spirited driving. No CEL. MST v2 intake, AA downpipe, and muffler delete.
