Just got back. I definately feel a difference in power for my car. Feels like the car takes off faster as well as accelerates quicker.

The sound is perfect for me. At low RPM's you can't tell a difference, but at higher revs you can definately hear it. Me & Jon (JLEVI) took the car for a run on that straight away that you and Alex were killing the other Alex's z4 on.

I'm still testing it , but I think anything over 50mph = great sound

We were

Sweet! Any stops at Victoria or Vancouver?

ironic · 06-07-2007, 11:23 PM

damn cruise sounds fun, i'm going to yosemite next week.

can't wait to check out the intake too, might be something i look at for the 335i

SES_D · 06-07-2007, 11:36 PM

yeah, I think those are two of the cruises destinations. It should be fun, great nature & scenary up there.

Damn, it feels like the intake "broke in". I'm starting to hear a much deeper sound than stock at low rpm's. Wow, I'm starting to love this thing. Plus no way my parents can find out unless something goes wrong.

I kinda of have a video or revs&stuff, you guys wanna see it? Doesn't the real thing any justice though.
