Hey sorry for such a late response. I did get it installed. At first I thought something is wrong because it did not feel like it's driving normally, but then after the first 100 miles it got so much better. The car is a whole different animal now. I'm still at about 200 miles since I put it in so not driving hard but already it's a huge positive. This kit will definitely bring the car a lot more life and spirit.

But there was a big increase in transmission noise, I do however have 335is engine mounts, Turner trans mounts, AKG 75d diff mounts. When in neutral it makes noticeably more noise and when starting out and going up in gears between 1700-2100 rpm there's noise. I think last time the trans fluid put in was lighter weight, doing a flush with 75w-90 will see how it goes.

I would definitely recommend the kit. A little disappointed and surprised by extra noise but I think the new trans fluid will change it. As an alternative for almost half the cost of OEM definitely recommend 👍
