WALNUT BLASTING awesomeness

So I just got my 335i done this last weekend and wow is all I can say. The idle feels much more smooth and it does seem to pull a little more hard. (that may just be wishful thinking) I got mine done for a great price and the guys were awesome. I also have a 535i and a X5 35i.... I plan on getting these done very soon. Thanks to these guys for being super helpful and very cheap as well. A+++ Job to get done and work.

To any ordinary person they might think it drives like new but I highly doubt it does. Having driven my 135i with 48k miles on it (before I did the walnut blast) and a friends, (same year but only 5k miles) I can say his def feels smoother at idle. Power wise I feel they are the same.

Also considering BMW and Mini both have SIB's out regarding rough running when its cold/little jumps in rpm's and the fix they recommend is a walnut blast with a dme programming. I would say people can def tell the difference. It has also been dyno proven on this site for 4-5whp I think it was.

is this guy the closest guy to Indianapolis that can do this this? Im pushing 70k and am sure mine needs to be done. Just had the turbos replace about 10k miles ago and am starting to mod, this is definitely in the budget!
