Ran my 135i on 30-40% e85. Made good power and ran cool.
Exhaust had a funky smell :))

The car with the tune is like a time machine.
It is quicker than my 3 and it had quality mods.
I spoke to the tuner about the same thing. I am more than happy to pay the extra for stage 2 than...
Many thanks, but I am aware
229kw (or so they say) of APR goodness :)
I can tell you this thing burns fuel and tyres are not going to last long :(
Overtaking is amazing
What's the use of having launch control if I have to do some work? ;)
Anyways, thought launch control only worked with foot flat on brake and flat on the juice?

Love the car. Very different to the rawness of the mps
Launch control is a waste of space, wheel spin deluxe
Thanks,
Not sure what tuning pathway to take. Don't want to spend a fortune on the car as we all know it's dead money. Sold my mps with some good cpe stuff and you certainly don't get any...
All done, well sort of. I've put a deposit on the Pirelli.
Looks really nice and quality is great.
Rang a Giac tuner to compare with apr price wise. While the Giac Is slightly cheaper at $1250...
Car has extended warranty untill dec 2014. I'm not to hung up on that though.
Are the results similar between these different tune houses?
Are there any tuners based on the goldcoast from...
Looking at a 2008 mk5 Pirelli gti Friday. Dsg and detuned s3 engine should be a interesting combo. If I like what I find I'll make an offer. First week or so I'm in to an apr dealer for 229kw of...
If I could justify the coin for a rs4 I'd be into a e60 m5. Mmmm don't worry about the mythical mps top end. Mmmmmm v10 goodness
Funny , actually was looking at c32s.
Make power easy but like the m3 are getting old. Fairly cheap compared to the m3 but all have high kms. Some problems with the blowers etc
Think I need to...
I think we're getting away from the job at hand, focus
I don't have a bike license nor any experience , thus I die
And die
Being a euro I would have assumed the parts were exy??
Did some more research. Apparentely the pirelli or ed30 has a detuned S3/golf R/ scirocco R engine ( same internals - rods, bigger turbo, lower compression etc). This means In apr stage 1 tune you...
I know the e46 can't be had for 30k, been looking for months and you can pick up a car with around 80k for 37-40k. Was still concerned buying a 150k retail car and the maintenance costs to keep it...
Not a bad recommendation.
I want people's ideas, the list is what's cruising around in my head at the moment.
To be honest I should have added G6e turbo. It was way up on my list, for out and...
Thought about it for about 30 seconds. Looks great but way to slow. I'd go nuts.
Thanks for the suggestion though ;)
Hey all,
Looks like after 6 years enjoying my mps it is off to a new home ( soon to be new member of ozmpsclub).
The conundrum I face is what to replace him with. 20-30+k to spend.
Options...
Not just small Circ of the tyres. I know of someone who ran same rims and tyre combo but with superlow springs (tyres sitting just under guards ) and they didnt scrub either.
Hey mate,
all I can tell you is that they didnt scrub on my lowered 3. No rolling of guards on my car either
You will not lose power due to overly large exhausts on Turbocharged vehicles. Exhaust size on N/A vehicles is highly important due to velocity and scavenging.
This talk of power loss due to the...
Where or we're ?
