BarryPr's BMW 530D (E39) Progress

[BarryPr]

Sounds good
and the cutout looks neat as well

Yes they did an excellent job!

Also the exhaust has been tightened. It is wobbly there but no more.

Sounds awesome :rollsmile:

And for a good price too.

One more thing that is fantastic is that both the owner and his son are diesel mechanics. Love it.

Thats sounds awesome, but the camera was a bit too close, kinda distorted the sound.

I'm looking for a diesel mechanic to remove and check my turbo, as well as fix a diesel leak for me and replace the oil breather...

Chef mate, I cannot advise either way. They are diesel mechanics but bmw specialists? I am not going to put my neck in a noose for this one BUT!! If they do engines with the same pride and gusto as what they did the exhaust, and I believe that they just might, then I would trust them.

I have asked the guy to replace the diesel breather with the Vortex one. I still have not received it for this to be done. I am chalking this up due to the PO strike.

As soon as it arrives the son, Marius, can have a crack at it. I am sure he will do an excellent job.

Dyno Run Done. This time things look much better and it is at the wheel.

Sorry guys I should have videod this but it only dawned on me after the run. :withStu: :sorry:

Wow looks like it's making decent gains. Did you do a before run? Which dyno is that?

Yes I have. The numbers are in this thread BUT they are way off. The people that did this run says they know those people who did the first run and that they should be shot :crazylaugh:

 

[RAArmstrong]

Nice gains :thumbs:

The thing with dyno's is that you'll never get the same reading on a different dyno... Rather find one and stick with it... That way you get reference figures... Well thats my take on it

They reckon that this cars mapping has been done low. If I push it I will get much higher numbers. I said I was satisfied.

I made a trade. I did a website for Mobile Acoustics (http://www.mobileacoustics.co.za) in exchange for some Xenon lights and to fix up the speakers in my cars boot.

I got more than I bargained for. These guys did a great job.

 

[sash]

that looks sweet
did you just add the subs or the front as well... Amp?

---

and website looks great too. great trade i say.

 

[BarryPr]

Thanks Sash. There are 2 Amps. All the speakers/tweeters have been replaced. 1 Amp drives the subs and the other the speakers.

Cool audio with a cool look. I love it.

boot looks great bud :clapper:

Thanks mate.

 

[rodga]

Nice trade
But a bit much for me to be honest
would prefer it in matched carpet/stealth install without the mesh etc
must sound awesome though
