Ok, what i am about to post has a certain age restriction... If you afraid of things like "Angel of Death" and "Devils" i would get the hell out of here... (See what i did there)...
Onto the teaser pics, when i get some time i will get some good pics of the entire car in some light... But this is what you will see at night! Oh, and JMPD (Police Department) is going to love me! Enjoy! Arbee

@Arbee
Great looking car :-) I have one almost the same, E91 330dA with a Promotec FMIC. Dynoed to 270hp/617nm and that is mesured a bit conservative.... ;-) Next time you go on the drag strip, try starting in 2 gear and if you haven't done that already push the DTC button to allow a bit of slip on the wheels ;-)

Yeah, was my first time on the track. Will get better... Been practicing my launch and i found 2nd gear with DTC off is best!

Took 2nd place today @ the FR&R Tuning Dyno Day. 237hp 551nm @ the wheels. Babyboss got 1st place.
Thanks to FR&R for the awesome day. Thanks to Xcede Crew for the work put into the car and for the company at the Dyno Day.

Ok, So they fitted...
New Rear discs and pads (OEM) The Powerbrake front Disc And, behind the wheel... I will get better pics once the car is cleaned, im also going to clean the calipers and wheels arches, noticed how filthy they are as i was fitting the brakes. Initial review of the Powerbrake Kit, even before bedding in and actually driving the car properly, they are awesome. Stops in its tracks! Much better than OEM. I will provide a full review after 1000km. Some Random Pics: Concave: Stone Chips Galore: Hope you like?

Results from Experience Dyno Day... Just my results.
Still trying to get results from Rally Cross I have a few mods planned, looking forward to getting them done in the first half of the year as i plan to take part in the Xcede Top 50 Challenge which will possibly be held sometime in the 3rd quarter of 2013. For now, let the saving begin! Mods will be revealed eventually... But, heres a hint of one of them... Just got it on Saturday... Will be fitted together with the other mods and dyno'd. And some pics to keep you guys happy! Got a small tripod so ws testing it. Thanks Enjoy

Some before pics as the car is currently having its front end resprayed. This is where most of the damage is, mainly the bumper. Fenders are actually clean, but i guess to "blend" the color they need to do the fenders. Bonnet is a tricky one, its got a bird poo stain (i suspect), clay didnt even remove it. Didnt get a pic of it but its there. Apart from the bird poo stain, the bonnet has chips on the front half, not as noticeable as the bumper as it has not been painted since it rolled out the factory. The bumper on the other hand has been sprayed, mid last year.
Pics: Tarnished badge and chips around the badge: The worst: Honestly, i cannot understand how my OCD has left me with this kind of damage for so long. Im really upset with myself... LOL. Anyways, i cannot wait for it to be done and back to its glory. Hoping i can VPS it soon, before damage starts to chip in again... See what i did there!!

Lowering - I really want to. But, the roads here in Sunny South Africa are not the best. Even with the sport pack suspension, i have to be very careful how i drive.
