Thoughts/Impressions after JB2/o2Sims & Other goodies
I had completed what I feel is the end of my performance upgrades for my E92...for now. I had the JB2 w o2 Sims installed, along with the UR Catless Downpipes and full UR exhaust.
I need to have the auto shop fab some extra parts in the back, because the UR exhaust just doesn't seem to line up completely and throws the alignment of the tips off. One will be too far in, the other too far out and touch the bumper to melt the paint..So..oh well for now.. Immediate increase in power/torque with all of these mods. I did notice that my oil temp which usually sits around 230/35 was around 240/45 yesterday when pushing it a little. I tried to slow down and play nice...but it still stayed around 240ish. I decided to head into NYC down 87 and see who wanted to play. Immediately I found old school M5 E39 body and we ran for a good mile or so with him fading behind me..had to slow down because of traffic. OWNED. Next was a 350z who, I have owned 1 before..I knew he had nothing..but he wanted to play and got OWNED again. Honda S2000...OWNED..there was only 1 car all night that gave me a little run...CLS550...But I knew he had some work done, because with the window down..I heard the Whistling sound of possibly a supercharger..and he knew I had something down. We pushed back and forth..I possibly could say he got me a couple times..but not owned.. All of my dealings tonight were on the major highways...I didn't mess around in the streets. Now I need to try to get an ODBII reader for my 08 E92, to get rid of the Check Engine Light and now for some reason the TPM sensors aren't working..so that is another light on. Any thoughts? Sorry for long post..just wanted to share a little rant.

AoshichanX- I do have an Auto..it does drone at 1.5 2.5rpm, but it goes away...you can smell it alot more too. Did you have a problem with the UR exhaust lining up even on both sides?

DP will make it drone even more if you already have droning issues....My CP-E exhaust in the other hand absolutely has no drone whatsover at any RPMs, if the drone is bothering you, maybe you should sell the exhaust and try another exhaust, because the droning would bother the shit out of me...

I think there is a recall on the TPMS sensors. I've gotten my third one, granted, now on aftermarket rims/tires. When I take it in next, I'm getting them to look at it once more. I think it's an ECU mod, not the sensors themselves.
