Also got Mike Benvo to code away my errors and while he was it he also added Euro MDM ... can't wait to get on the track with this...

That's the same setup I have - I have -2.5 camber also. Where did you have it installed? I have no track experience and I need some guidance.

Lol crickets! Anyhow I got my h&r race springs removed and back to stock.. Ride was just too rough. What a waste of $..

Also picked up cf performance spoiler and installed.

installed test pipes yesterday. the combination of them plus the megan catback is one of the nicest sounding e9x M3 exhaust combos I've heard. Pretty much zero drone or rasp.

Can't complain about the hp bump either!

I'd love to hear yours and compare to my OEM exhaust mod + test pipes.

mtfinger · 03-26-2013, 07:07 PM

New M3 owner here.

I'm still in break in (800 miles currently). I have done the standard "Cosmetic" mods like black grills, painted refletors, etc, but now looking into other mods.

First, for Driver mods, it's been about 15 years since having a performance car, so if anyone has any recommendation for Driver Instruction that would be great. I don't see myself becoming a regular track guy, but it would be good to beef up my driving skills and throw it around the track a few times. Let me know if you guys have any recommendations for Driving Courses.

For car mods, I'm planning a BMPSport tune in the next few months. Heard really good things. Second will be Exhaust. Really not sure in this area. I like the perf increase from test pipes or a good x-pipe, but I'm concerned about loudness. I like a tough sounding car, but I'm not into "Loud". Maybe if we have a regional meet up sometime, I can hear what you guys are running.

Hoping for more that 20 sunny days this year!

PrimeBMW · 03-26-2013, 07:18 PM

I put two Recaro seats in the e92 M3s.............two Recaro kids seats

Then I proceeded to take my e46 M3s to PIR and leave every Z06 in my dust.....every other car for that matter. I will have to post up some pictures soon but this baby (e46 M3s) is fast!

When I get my exhaust installed, I'll let yo hear it. It should be really loud!

congrats buddy! i have mcs on the way for the e46. can benvo do euro mdm on and e46?

Transfer · 03-26-2013, 09:25 PM

FYI on Euro MDM, it almost got me in real trouble yesterday. The weather was nice so I took an on-ramp corner a little quicker than normal and had to make 3 HUGE steering corrections to save it. It was bad and I'm not sure MDM did anything.

Google m track mode for e46. It's basically gives you more slip.

Are you still on snow tires?

Transfer · 03-27-2013, 01:07 AM

No. PSS 255/275. I know how it happened (cold tires, dip in road) and it was my fault but I was probably at a 50 degree angle on the initial oversteer and I would have thought euro MDM would have prevented that. Of course it was all very fast.

Ya it's quite a step up. I've figured out how to code the M3 GTS MDM mode, which is even more aggressive.
