@@natespec ayy that's awesome ahah kinda figured it would be the only way for it to still sound NA and walk an F82. Don't think an all motor E46 can be that fast, but I might be wrong.
Nowadays…. It’s honestly better to leave cars alone. Pull what it’s meant to handle then enjoy it for what it is. From years of exotics . Tuner cars. All of it I’ve been in the seat of it all. And after 15 years of blood sweat oil and no thanks. Transitioning to a career I actually care about soon? I’m not even interested in a new car…. And if I ever bought another old one? I wouldn’t be touching it. Other than maintenance. If I bought a new car? (Which would be super dumb only bikes are worth buying new now. ) it would have to just come as it’s gonna go forever. And the closer I get to 30 the more my back says Bentley Or Merc instead of Porsche or Rari. Just how it goes I guess.
Update, almost the same mod here, pushed 376.1whp on dyno with the RR tune and 425.5whp with a custom tune. Custom catback, PPE UEL headers, stock intake box with carbon RR piping and aFe dry drop in filter. I also have the secondary cats attached, 91 octanes.
