Product placement :-)

lol...I walked around the whole time, I'm not really one to hang around my car sorry guys. Our shop does custom Cobb tunes so I had to throw a Cobb box in there. Thats about all I will say about the tune on here...

Glad everyone got a peek though haha.

Don't worry it will not be long. Just needs the right place and time before getting going. I plan on making this a one weekend affair, with other friends who know wtf they are doing, thankfully because I have no idea

I will most certainly be fitting everything up myself, which is why it is taking a little while to get a good whole weekend on a lift. The shop that is going to help me out with the install is called Markert Motor Werks in GA. The disassembly may get messy, but the re-assembly will be slow and methodical.

You driving down to GA for the install ? I guess where you work they specialize in EVOs and STIs only ? Anyway, I am going to have to make a point to come up there and check this kit out. I'm probably 20 mins away from where you work and I know my way around cars if you need some extra hands to help out.

Its mostly because of where I work is just so busy all the time, its difficult to get a lift for a whole weekend. We could easily do it, in fact our tech's have worked on several 335i's before so it would not be difficult to do. I just really don't want to wait another month before I can put it on so I am considering other options...

Most likely for violations of the user agreement.

jb's335 · 08-30-2012, 01:38 PM

Ok...I'm sure SIKH is a great guy and all but his banning is his own problem...

Back to big turbo goodness. I am still working out the details for the shop in question I will be doing the install, once I know more I will post it up here. But e85 will more than likely be my gas of choice since it is so readily available around here.

dsm25psi · 08-30-2012, 01:50 PM

There is plenty of BMW/tech guys in charlotte that can do the install for you.

I appreciate the offer. Yeah EuroWise would love to get a hold of this build, but that would affect Motion Lab a little too much IMO. I would probably get fired if I did this install at a competing shop in the area lol.

So I am sticking with someone I know. I was friends with the owner of Markert Motor Werks while in school at Clemson so I am just going to go with him. He has done a couple 335i turbo installs so far so having someone who has done all this before will definitely help get this done in a proper timeframe.

i wasent really talking about other performance shops, pmd

jb's335 · 08-30-2012, 10:51 PM

Gotcha...pm'ed back

Anyone in the area is welcome to swing by our shop to check out the kit, its sitting in our waiting room ready for install.

4500 Nations Crossing Road, Charlotte, NC 28217. We are the big greyish/blue building with all the Subaru's out front. My car should be out front too, with or without my black wheels.

I'm serious, I'm there from 9-6 every day, 10-1 on most Saturdays. We also sell and install most anything for 335i's, we are a direct dealer with ETS. We also do a lot of custom fab work, our fab guy was the original guy to make the Underground Racing twin turbo Gallardo kits, so I feel safe in saying he can take on just about any fab job big or small.

I would have had him do a manifold for my 335i but I'm just too impatient lol. Someday he will though, I have some interesting ideas for a top mount single and twins setup...
