On the E9x cars, the dealership is basically the same price. Hit up natasha at BMW of Vista. They have oil change packages for the E9x cars that are basically the same price as if you bought the parts yourself.

Even with my BMW employee discount, it is still only a few $$ more to have them do the labor for me.

Installed the VRSF exhaust today. Sounds great! Very mellow but wakes up when you get on it.

I heard back from the dyno day guys. It would be $60 for 3 pulls or $75 for 4 pulls. We'd need at least 10 people to make it happen. Is there interest?

Count me in but I leave march 14th for a small deployment for 5 weeks. I could probably get 1 or 2 guys that I know from the gym to come.

I have another issue.... anyone local want to let me borrow their sparkplug socket for the n54 motor. ive been trying to change the spark plugs for a couple of weeks and keep running into problems like getting sent the wrong sockets. If you don't feel comfortable letting me borrow it I will gladly use it and install it in your drive way and buy you a six pack of whatever you like. Txt me 281 728 3669

No worries. I used to live in Santee, next to Santana High School.

Tonight's bad for me (I can make an exception if you really ARE that desperate), but anytime tomorrow I'm free. PM me for contact and location to meet.
