Took it in for its yearly service, just for fun I reflashed it back to stock first from Stg 2 BM3

OMG its like driving a Corolla...well not quite :)

Jump hard on the gas & the car moves for sure, no traction control on like usual with it going nuts

Amazing difference, just shows you get so used to the extra horsepower & really miss it when its not there :oops:

Looking forward to getting it back to normal again :headbang:

Painted effective but ugly stock braces

going to fab my own insulated piece to protect cone filter from engine heat. Will be alright this winter w cold temps and won’t drive it much.

I drove my e46 m3 this weekend because it was so nice out before parking for winter and man it felt turtle slow. Hadn’t driven it for 2 months Hard to believe 333 Na hp can feel so slow

Love the red! Much better than stock.

I'm also eyeing the BMS intake and was wondering why add a heat shield as it's meant to be an "open air" intake?

I was considering this myself, so now I'm confused.

Welp.... the stock air box has a very efficient cold air design. There is a duct right below the headlight that funnels cold air directly into the air box

the air box is a very efficient design and will provide more than enough air for almost any application.
The fancy CAI claim to boost hp by only 10 and if you look at the dynos that is only at 5k and above rpm

I did it for the noise honestly. With my budget design I run the risk of engine and exhaust manifold heat getting sucked in and that will actually rob me of power. I am going to cut and fab a piece to separate the cone from the heat and have it meet the hood to create a little chamber just fed by the factory duct below the headlight

Picked up a nail and took it to the dealer. The tire is not in stock and the dealership has no idea what is going on. Fml.
