Why was the Rev Motoring Thread Closed?

There was a good discussion there.

It's locked. Probably because it's a product being sold without Vendor status?

Tom Droze · 04-12-2015, 06:12 PM

Tick tock the thread is locked and nobody else can play, and if they do we'll take their shoe and keep it for a year or two.

Sorry guys, I just had a momentary flashback to my childhood.

Taskmaster · 04-12-2015, 10:55 PM

Tom...what will we do with you...

andrey_gta · 04-12-2015, 11:11 PM

Hope the product stays in production somewhere

It's my fav intake mod for restoring my exhaust sound

probably. this forum is ridiculous. it totally stifles any small guys from coming up with innovative products.

they're still on ebay. I ended up picking one up - I think the 4 ply would have fit better, but the 6ply fit on well enough. I haven't really felt any difference but it's only a few HP, so not surprising.

Yes. I was a little concerned with the 6 ply fitment myself, but it seems to be on there.

I absolutely notice a difference in the smoothness of revs. Seems a little quicker to rev too, but I don't think the car itself feels any faster really with such a small hp gain.

hassmaschine · 04-13-2015, 10:32 AM

I'll go back to the dyno this spring sometime. It seems like the results were pretty consistent in the original thread.

Of course they would close something that's legit and kept ModMyEuro from continuing to steal thousands. What a joke!

lol.

It just seems pointless to close a thread where there was legit useful discussion about an aftermarket product for us NA guys...
Especially after 9 months of it being open. Really a waste of time and a kill of a good thread,

Mods.

No kidding. I mean it's a sub 100 dollar part, I don't blame them for not bowing down to pay a commission on top for being on the forums.

At least they got their name out, from there, we can all follow via Search or eBay.. I reckon.

It's also available on Amazon...

I just ordered mine off ebay last night. If I knew about this, I would've ordered from amazon (not big fan of ebay)

Hopefully, I will not regret the purchase. I want to enhance the engine sound and get few mid range TQ and HP.

I just love the sound of last NA straight six bmw sold in USA aka N52

hassmaschine · 04-14-2015, 11:39 AM

my ass dyno can't tell any difference. I don't think it hurt anything though.

Well, don't be disappointed - I have one, nice fitting part, and as mentioned above - can't hurt to smooth out the intake flow

But it doesn't change the engine sound that I can tell on my N51 3-stage with a Performance Euro Airbox system, nor does it feel any more HP/TQ on the butt dyno

W37V · 04-14-2015, 01:18 PM

That is disappointing then.

When I removed charcoal filter, intake noise became louder and I def felt the difference.

I will give it a try and see how it works out. Hopefully they have some kind of return policy in place.

hassmaschine · 04-14-2015, 02:09 PM

the dyno evidence was enough for me. it's just hard to tell the difference of only 4-5whp. but at $60 and about half an hour to put it in, it's not a bad deal. I mean, that's less than $10/bhp. People pay $1000 for a flash that gives them 15hp.

jc5988 · 04-14-2015, 02:10 PM

HP gain is minimum, probably same as KN filter replacement will feel.

but $60 is less then one oil change...... I have no complain against it.

W37V · 04-14-2015, 02:49 PM

K&N made it sound better, but didn't do anything for HP/TQ
