Feed back on the rotrex will be nice. Just in time for aa to switch to the bigger blowers. Stage3 numbers are great. Your first impressions are a great selling point for aa crew. I hope it was a free demo unit right Andrew !!

Just like Andrew said, power delivery is unbelievably smooth. I'm still breaking in the new clutch and rod bearings so I haven't opened it up too much yet, but I can tell it feels like a whole new animal.

If only!

Just curious, but what oil change interval were you using? Factory/dealer every 15k or something else?

Looks like you really did make a good decision to change the bearings. Makes me a little nervous about my 08.

If you're having any kind of work done, I would highly suggest it. Parts + Labor was close to $1500, but that's a hell of a lot cheaper than a new motor.

I wish I could be a good little M3 owner and say I changed oil every 3-4k, but it was more like every 6-10 lol

Very nice mods, congrats

Hope to see the results very soon ! I stay tuned

Love me some AA goodness! Damn I miss my E90 M3...

How many of your 90,000 miles were supercharged?

Read the OP's original post...80k+ boosted miles.

DomDK · 04-02-2013, 09:27 AM

This car has so much win

FVM3 · 04-02-2013, 10:03 AM

awesome

NikB316 · 04-02-2013, 10:07 AM

boostedM,
Congrats buddy! I know you are going to love this kit as much as I have

. I have maybe 2-3k miles with the upgraded blower and its really a nice improvement. I've been slacking on videos and pics but I'll have them up soon enough. Let me know if you get on the dyno...I was consistently in the mid 580s SAE and 600+ uncorrected on a brisk night. Close to 400lbwtq SAE too!

Markyd83 · 04-02-2013, 10:19 AM

sounds fantastic. Looks like the car is holding up well. Nice work
