Sorry to go OT, but you are still running stock mufflers right?

Wheels look great btw, excellent finish combined with MR

Thanks man.

Kenny, you are totally on topic! Yes still running Stock Mufflers, actually love the sound at WOT, deciding still on whether to go with an AM one.

I picked the car up from Roman@ESS this morning, then drove it back to LA with my family in tow, the car drives flawlessly and is very fast.

Right now it's only at 11 psi on 91 octane, we will eventually up the boost, but want to get some #'s at this level on 91 pump.

Can't say enough about ESS and their customer service, hard work, vast knowledge and expertise. I've been around the BMW community for a long time, I say this objectively, these guys are flat out the best at what they do. I believe this is the only Stage 3 built motor S65 with a full custom fuel system that is functional and will be able to support even more boost than it's pushing now.

I couldn't go WOT too much on the way back home because my 3 year old son was driving back with me, I think he was just as excited as I was. It was raining when we hit the LA area as well.

I'll get some dyno's, Vbox #'s, comparo runs, vids, ASAP, I need new rear brake pads, so I need to get that done first. Extremely happy so far, eventually we will add more boost.

Also have to add when I saw the MORR wheels in person, they look even better, the fitment is perfect as well, good stuff Carlos@MORR.

Congrats DLSJ5! I definitely cannot wait to see, hear, and read all the data you will be providing for us. With the power you used to put down with 7psi, I can't imagine what it'll be like with 11psi!!

I'm also very curious to hear more about this upgraded fuel system.

Enjoy the car in safety!

Excited for vids!

Ess has the sc tunes down pat. My old sc'd e46 ran like a champ too.

Love the build, ad the car looks fantastic!

biglare · 11-21-2011, 12:07 AM

Awesome news Drew! I can't wait to put my recent upgrades to the test with your recent transplant! I'm sure you are like a kid with a Christmas present, only more so.... So I can't wait to see some numbers. Let's Dyno our cars together bro!

kyleb350 · 11-21-2011, 01:25 AM

Love the wheels. I have the same with the Smoked Titanium finish. What size tires did you end up putting on the rears? I have 285/35/19's and am wondering if 295/30/19's would fit.

Can't wait for numbers, or maybe I should try to stay away, have been tempted to upgrade to VT3 even without numbers!!!

Congrats on getting the car back Enjoy!!!
