Are you going to buy them? I think it makes the plenum look like it’s OEM+. FYI, I’m using my Dinan elbow and air filter, not the Karbonius elbow and itg filter.

Yes bought it already. It’s a complete set with elbow, plenum and carbon box all from Karbonius. Found new logos online as well

I also have the elbow but I’m not a fan of itg filters so I used my Dinan. I’m also using the PowerFlex engine mounts which raises the engine by ~0.15”. No clearance issues with the ///M V8 version.

Finally got the ownership transfer done using my old license plate.
Now the work starts to get it in tip top shape.

Very nice list. Welcome to the thunderdome. We love these cars and they love us back. Maintain them before modding them and they last forever. Also sound better than anything attainable(except new z06 vette but I’m too poor even for that one, lol)

Thanks mate.
Decided to just get everything done now so I don’t need to worry this summer. I’m super excited to get the car.

This M3 isn’t exactly super fast anyways. It’s just fun to drive. My X5 is faster 😜😜

The sound will be incredible.

Brakes and pads ready for install tomorrow.

Intake is used so I’ll have it refurbished so it looks brand new. Should be installed in a few days
