Damnit trev it's autoBARN! 6.2 in city driving? Wew. Yeah brah grab a filter, engine will sound nicer

Looking at getting a drop in. Don't think that would make it sound different?

Also improving emissions which is why apparently the gov offers a rebate for buying it and having it installed, I think ittl cost you like 3k all up.

Don't forget the small boot space will decrease by adding this. No more picking friends up from the airport. Haha

Who knows maybe they can find some other place to fit in a gas tank.

My filter did change the sound of my engine a little, idk bout a drop in

Alright guys just an update on my build

So I'm getting my k&n drop in done this Saturday.
Ordered a professional CIC and combox (no idea when I'll get around to fitting it)
Added some ///m stripes on my grills.

Yup... If u listen carefully. Haha but I would recommend changing it. Drives way better. There's microsecond delay in power now. Also it's a good idea to just suck the dirt out of the filter if you're using stock filter. When I got mine done today it looked like a rubbish dump with heaps of leaves in it!

I got it off eBay for 113. Super cheap auto is selling it for $130 but they usually have to order in as well.

Trev88 · 04-29-2016, 08:36 PM

The BMW performance exhaust muffler would probably be that price already. Lol

I'm still waiting for my cic cables to arrive so i can finish my CIC retrofit lol, In the meantime i've had a look at retrofit paddles shifters on the steering wheel, I would need to buy the whole steering wheel, but it seems almost impossible to find one atm.

Something like this

I can rewire the pins, so the right one is + and left one is -
