HOLY FUCKING SHIT. I just took the mufflers off because of the rear lip. and i turn the car on, its louder than the damn murcielago! I'm just reving it up to 3k at most. the entire house was rumbling and cant bother the neighbors either. I'm so fuckin stoked about this. cant wait to drive it. also figured out the exact problem with my car. gotta wait to get the car, but really cant wait.

turn the speakers up

A lighter color would be perfect.

Hopefully very soon. Now I know its either the slave cylinder or the cmc. Because i pry'd the fork with my jack and it actually moves to dis-engage, but at the same time in engaged position, still moves a little bit. Which i guess is normal, doesnt make sense though. What threw me off was that half the techs told me that it shouldn't be able to move at all and the other half said that it should.

Your underestimating it. 99' M3's run around 14 flat stock with a good driver. You should be able to do a mid to low 13 in yours.

Thanks guys

What do u guys think of this?
Wrap the cover in di-noc and then pu the stickers on or just paint the entire cover nbp and them put the stickers on. I'm leaning more towards painting it.

Paint it. While the DiNoc does look nice, I dont think it will stand up to underhood temps, especially in Tx.

Some people are considering wrapping their engine covers in it...

I was wondering if the heat would be too extreme.

Can't you just apply some high temp clear or something to seal it?

i heard there is nothing you can apply on top of di-noc. it doesnt come out right, not even resin or epoxy. but any ways, we can let someone else try that i'm painting mine.

Its ALIVE!

changed out the slave cylinder and apparently, the fork does move around a little bit in our cars, doesnt in most.

Took it out on a drive, scraping everywhere.

Yes, but dynos are meaningless. Theyre only good if you do a before/after for a mod, and it has to be the same dyno with similar conditions.

Looking at his vids, the car pulls well. Its got more then 250whp.
