Jesus, 8hrs for some coils? I did mine in 1 and a half + 149.99 lifetime alignment at firestone done deal. Haha

Would be nice if we had someone like ptp local to do corner balancing.

Awesome idea. I would love to get my car on a lift for a few projects I've been putting off!

Turboboi562 · 02-18-2012, 06:27 PM

Dang 8hrs crazy.

Wookie420 · 02-20-2012, 04:08 PM

How many people have installed their own exhaust? If it's all bolt on, it should be pretty easy to do, right?

EDIT: Also, I'll talk to Steve @ AutoScope about the DIY day and let you guys know ASAP.

I found this DIY. It doesn't look too bad assuming you have access to a lift and the right tools. And it looks like you need another set of hands. Did you get a new exhaust?

Just finished installing the X Meth Kit from BMS. This thing pulls f'ing hard now. Sent the logs off to Terry, hopefully all is good.

landman2k1 · 02-21-2012, 12:22 AM

Hey Wookie420,

Thanks for the heads up on the ASTs. I went by and talked to Vorshlag last week and I think I am going to pull the trigger on some 4100s in a few days.

Not a problem man, I think you're making the right choice. I'm getting mine installed as we speak

So was that your E92 I saw on the lift at COBB today? If so: Looking good

acj75 · 02-21-2012, 09:38 PM

Have any of you guys replaced your battery with one of the lighter weight ones like the Mini or Braille? If so, just wondering if there's any issues with it holding a charge for your dd.

Ms6 to 335i · 02-21-2012, 10:59 PM

So about to instal my charge pipe in saturday

Chuck · 02-21-2012, 11:17 PM

Saw the sun today and wanted to escape from work to go drive! Blessed/cursed that the shop is slammed. Hopefully it'll be nice this weekend (I've given up on weathermen). Random outburst over.

LLinxuS · 02-22-2012, 08:12 AM

second hit and run on my rear bumper in 6 months - is this normal for dfw area?

I just finished putting on my M3 Rep rear not too long ago. Hoping this one is repairable
