Good point. 0,5 cm difference of downpipes position (compared to stock DPs) could result in at least 3 cm difference of resonators position.

Wow, good work and documentation + pics. Looks like you turn that e92 into a BEAST! Man, that cool how you have access to all the tools, did that LSD make a big difference? I know they do on the FWD Honda's I had in the past.

On a RWD car, no LSD = 1 one wheel drive, LSD = two wheel drive

LSD makes a huge difference, you get more traction on heavy acceleration, in corners, more control when car oversteers and especially on WET surface, etc... it's an essential mod for such a powerfull, torqy car like 335i If you put in one corner vishnu piggy-back, aftermarket DP's, catback, IC and much more stuff, and in another corner just an LSD, and let me choose, I would take an LSD diff.
LSD should be fitted in the factory, if you ask me... at least, it should be like an option, if it is don't blame me, because I am not very interested in new BMWs'.

Thanks. LSD is one of the most important mods for a car like 335i. You simply can put down more power to the ground with LSD. Even a stock 335i needs an LSD, not to mention a heavily modified one.

Wow, when I read your comment, I almost believed that you drive a 335i, not an EVO
