335i LET THE MODS BEGIN! look what finally arrived in the mail

[Baracus]

After much consternation caused by our inept SA post office, my mods have finally arrived!

Had to drive through to the international mail dept at OR Tambo, as they “misplaced” my parcel :banghead:, suppose it was to be expected considering the recent service delivery levels of our local government :cursin:.

So anyways here goes:

- Procede V5 running auto tuning. Like it says, “auto tuning”, automatically tunes the car, on the fly, for optimal boost and timing, taking into account current octane and environmental conditions such as temp and barometric pressure. Being at JHB altitude, with our poor fuel quality, this was obviously a major concern for me. Will also soon be running the new Proceed Dynamic Ignition Correction (DIC) software (as soon as auto tuning is enabled with this feature). The guys in the US are raving about this, for more info follow this link http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=481972&page=4

- Extreme Turbo Systems (ETS) intercooler shipped with charge pipe. No cutting required. Really impressed with the quality of workmanship

- AR design stainless steel 3” Hi-Flo catless downpipes. They now produce DP’s which fit both RHD as well as LHD vehicles. Also check out that weld quality

Unfortunately I have to wait until end of next week to install as got a recall mail from BMW recently saying they need to replace my high pressure fuel pump, don’t know if anyone else has received this? Seem to remember Sherwin posting something about the HPFP recall? I’m definitely not complaining

Will be doing a baseline dyno, and then one each time I install a component.

I dont expect to see a much of a difference from the IC on the dyno as it only really helps on the road when things start hotting up. Biggest gains will be from the Procede and then the DP's

The missus doesn't have a clue at the mo, if she only knew what it cost I would most certainly be a dead man imp:

Told her it was to help the cooling and only was a couple of 100 bucks... LOL some woman just dont understand our passion for cars! Will give you a call tomorrow, maybe on Wednesday we can hook up at WRC again. Need to get a gap from work otherwise they gonna kick my butt!

Hey there, nice stuff!!

My car has currently got the same mods as you from different companies thou.
I got JB4, ER intercooler kit with cp and ar dps! At the moment I've only got the JB4 in as the car went for a service.
If you want to and can let me know in advance what you planning to do and when and where you dyno, I can join you and we can compare mods with mods on the to cars at exactly the same time, that is if you want!

Anyway enjoy those mods as it makes the car a real beast!!
Oh i,ve got a 135 auto!

Holy groceries.
I know its a sin to say but consider ceramic coating your dp's.
