ok, PM sent.

but why in the eff is everyone selling their tunes !?!?

Black Gold · 01-05-2011, 08:50 PM

You are first in line, so if you want it, you got it.

No problem at all with the tune, its awesome. Im just going with the cobb so I can have the option to dyno tune for more extensive mods in the future.

Litos · 01-05-2011, 08:52 PM

i asked similar questions in their thread

nothing beats having a complete dyno ProTune........

i'll pay full price to burger next week - at least i know i'll get it and i'll know it's brand new.

Just as well. That way you can update to the JB4 for $85 when it comes out.

Hey whatever happened to the coding guy

While doing research on the V5 I saw that there was a prototype JB4 circulating in some cars...

Yes, prototype - like Robocop

Ooo, have fun. Hahaha.

I might go to the meet. But in my friends gti.

Litos · 01-06-2011, 04:59 PM

I would like to have a "sprited driving event" with someone with a 335i just to see how my 4400lb boat holds up...

SRT8 has a DSP canned tune, cold air intake and ported intake manifold...also has mufflers to make it sound good but it has the stock cats and piping...

any takers...they run 13.2-13.5 in stock form but my car has heavy 22's on it that slowing it down...I know the 6.1 freight trains up top though...

Houston pickup/cash only. I'll trade it for just about anything, too. Gimme an offer!

tee.tran · 01-09-2011, 03:59 PM

So how'd the meet turn out? I went out last night and didn't wake up until about an hour ago, lol. Bleh.

Litos · 01-09-2011, 10:28 PM

i didn't go to the meet - i stayed at my house from 12 to 6 and watched my car transform from a dull and hazy shitbox into a presentable and "wet looking" black vehicle.

serge73 · 01-10-2011, 09:24 AM

as the title says, Im in market to buy new set of wheels for my E90, anybody in the local Houston area that has Alufelgen's SF-71 wheels?, I would like to see them up close before pulling the trigger if you dont mind.... I drive a E90 328i with Sport suspension and planning on going to SF-71 19's but still undecided on color

Vigorous · 01-10-2011, 12:06 PM

I just bought the hyperblack SF-71's, but it's currently in the shop adding more stuff. It should be done soon.

dont think anyone went cause of the weather.....i'm moving it to next month.

Black Gold · 01-10-2011, 08:27 PM

Got some work done on my car by power fab automotive.

Good group of guys, highly recommended.

There was some talk of them becoming an authorized protuner for the new Cobb ap, which would be awesome. Houston needs at least one protuning shop.

They are already protuners of the gtr, and had some nice dyno numbers to show.

My bro lives about 10 mins away from the UrbandSpeed meet area, we came out at 10:30 but no one was there

Were you at the C&C on Saturday? I think I saw your car..

Ps: Back in DFW!..Was really hoping to snaps some pics of the Houston BMW scene!

BillLee · 01-10-2011, 10:31 PM
