We are supposed to have a dyno day in a month or so as well as I think someone said they were going to set up a meet...if only I could remeber who that was...

Nice. I was gonna say I have some extra parts but I don't think I have what you need. Count me in for a dyno day. I need a consistent 93+meth tune

May works better for me. It also has less of a chance of being cold as fuck.

Thanks for giving me time to get my mods in!

Yeah the delay with the meth kit is me just taking my time. I borrowed some hardware from work which should make the install look cleaner. I also have to find where i tap in so the stupid gauge isn't at full brightness when my headlights are on.

The dyno day is just for numbers afaik. GSD do not tune these cars so you will need to get it dialed in ahead of time.

Who is doing the tuning for you now? or are you running an OTS BEF?

Will GSD do an AWD car?

Nope. You'll need to convert to FWD first.

I wish man, that project is complete for now

Working on saving for a new preamp and power amp setup

What's everyone else up to?

SLOWER · 04-07-2016, 11:48 AM

So no dyno for me?

Bo that was me on Billerica Ave. I couldn't react fast enough to give you a beep.

Love the color man! Drove by too quickly but did you ever get the wheels mounted?

SLOWER · 04-07-2016, 02:44 PM

No life has been a little chaotic and I'm still trying to decide. I'm obsessing over it. Let's take a vote:

Velgen VMB5

Pros: a few hundred bucks cheaper, allows for a meatier tire, not as much poke, doesn't throw the "I wish it was an M3" vibe.
Cons: not forged

or

OEM 437M in black.

Pros: forged, OEM+ look
Cons: a little more poke than I am comfortable with. Rears would need to be 265/30-19

Torgus · 04-07-2016, 02:59 PM

of those 2 choices I would say: OEM 437M in black.

Hadley · 04-07-2016, 03:01 PM

I vote for the oem wheels! The other one you posted looks like vossen wheels to me and I'm not a fan at all

jor2cool4u · 04-07-2016, 03:12 PM

another vote for OEM

... btw is the inner rim darker than the rest of the rim or is it just the way the light is hitting them? appears in the pic that the inner is darker and the outer parts of the spokes are chrome-ish.

EDIT: nvm just did a google search, guess that is the way they are eh?

+1 is this an option? the weird blackness looks weird to me, why wouldn't they make the entire rim black?

zero2sixtyZ · 04-07-2016, 03:17 PM

My vote is OEM 437M in silver.

SLOWER · 04-07-2016, 03:20 PM

Yes they are black with a machined? finish on the spokes.

It's funny the gray/silver ones seem to be harder to find.

Etek · 04-07-2016, 03:50 PM

I'm with Z on this OEM 437 silver gets my vote. Never liked those Velgens

WordOnRoad · 04-07-2016, 03:53 PM

Black Advan RS.

Hadley · 04-07-2016, 03:56 PM

Would the 343M wheels fit? Similar look and you can tell people you rolling on dubs, yo
