Hi Raj, I hope you don't mind but i took the liberty of editing your recent pics slightly....

Chappers 71 · 05-17-2019, 01:55 PM

Still looking good Raj.

Excellent work

Raj's car is a masterpiece!

I'm taking bits of his ideas and slowly implement to my E92.
BTW are we having any gatherings in the summer I could attend and meet like minded people?

That's really kind and very appreciated. It's always great hearing things like that.

Glad it's also offering some inspiration.

I think we should look to organise something. I'd definitely be up for travelling to a meet. Used to quite a lot back in the day.

Did attend Caffeine and Machine on Sunday which was a really good turnout.

Will upload some pics.

Will try and get you a pic.

Where are yours rubbing?

I think the front one does sit against the side of the inner wing but other than that they are clear.

Thanks buddy. Guess I’d better get ordering lol.

Absolutely love it, especially that it still looks class too and not over the top.

Hi raj, loving the car as always...

Just wanted to hear your opinion on the forge DV's? My cp has holes for a normal tial style bov and the stock dv ports, so currently using oem dvs vented to atmosphere and blocked off the 50mm bov hole.

I do like the look of having two forge DV's in my setup, but I wonder how well they work compared to a single bov/ oem DV's?

Any thoughts would be appreciated, cheers dude 👍🏽

Well I guess it depends on what you’re after. The Forge DVs are really good and do offer the ability to swap the internal springs dependant on boost levels etc.
I think at the end of the day they all work in pretty much the same way but some vent to air and others divert the air back into the intake side.

They can still be heard from inside the cabin and I personally really like them. They do have to be maintained though and cleaned out every so often unlike the Tial.

Hope that helps.

That is fantastic looking! My favourite part is the dash and seats! Oozes quality over the standard stuff!

Thanks. The seats are definitely one of the best mods by far.

Thank you buddy.

Not much happening with her presently soars from just enjoying driving her.

Also have a new (daily) toy I’ve been modding lol.

RajB · 11-08-2019, 06:47 PM

Actually totally forgot to add these pics to the thread.

Finally fitted the rear corner splitters which I had CF’d to match the side skirt extensions:

And I replaced the number plate for something more in keeping with the car and lights:
