Its that time again... Does this look right to you guys? I live in Chapel Hill right next to I-40 exit 273. Just wondering why there are multiple items under property tax.. thought it was just one flat fee based on value of your vehicle...

That's almost exactly the same amount they're charging me in Durham (I live near Duke). It's a little absurd that they valued my car that high though; I kind of want to send them a letter and tell them they can buy my car for $3k less than their quoted price and I'd still be making serious dough.

Only one has a fuel pump upgrade and runs 8-9 gallons.

I personally run 6 gallons on my RACE flash and for example Dave runs between 4-6 gallons on his because the e85 next to us is always e90. Most important thing when flashing to up e85 or get more power out of your existing e85 is logging.

I started with the BMS flashes and have just tweaked them a little to make them smoother and a bit better for mpgs. Timing is the right level of aggressiveness while still staying safe. Also I only will flash if you have it stacked with a jb4. If you don't I won't. JB4 is crucial for safety reasons that I believe every flashed car should have (despite what type of flash it is).

If you want more info message me.

Nice, I don't think I've seen your car there before. My car looks like it got into a fight with a snowblower right now so it will be refreshing to see a pristine 3er

Nice! I picked up a set of those same style wheels … good to know they are going to look great on my 335i.

Here from Lake Norman. Just posted about looking for anyone that does or knows of anyone doing the walnut blasting on the N54 in the general e92 forum. Was thinking about buying all the stuff to DIY and would offer the equipment for rent out to locals for use on their cars.

Let me know if anyone knows or would be interested.

Just came across a post from last year where a guy was buying the stuff and offering it up in Charlotte. Just PM'd him to see if he ever got it.

Also got a PM from a guy in Atlanta that organized a group buy with a local shop and ended up getting them all done for $250 with like 10 cars but haven't seen any local shops that do it other than BMW which is $$$.
