Is there an extended warranty on our turbos until 80,000 miles? I cant find where I read that, wanted to make sure if anyone could confirm if this is true

When I first got the car, switched out to PSS from rft and still thought 46 sounded really high (discount just tried putting 49psi in to 'account for weather' on my new p4s4, I laughed and said nay, 46 will do fine).

I mean for dd what differences are we REALLY gonna be seeing at all..? mpg is all I'd really be able to notice I think, not x-crossing or anything so whatever you're comfy with I'd say is fine. 36-39F/42-46R

So if they are not in the drop down, then I'm guessing they are not covered?

I only saw injectors, footwell module, and the charge pipe.

Thanks bud

I haven't been able to locate an accurate load chart, but using max loading you can see what the inflation difference would be with a linear load capacity. May get you to a good starting point:

Looking at rear only, the Stock 255/30R19 RE050A's have a capacity of 1,356lb @ 50 psi. Michelin PS4S in 275/30R19 have a capacity of 1,565 lb @ 50 psi.

At max load, the load area would then be 27.12 in2 for the stockers, and 31.3 in2 for the larger PS4S.

27.12 in2*46 psi = 1,247.52 lb for the BMW recommended pressure.
1,247.52 lb / 31.3 in2 = 39.9 psi to create the equivalent load on the PS4S.

So you recommend using the same load and lower psi or same psi on the PS4S?.... only talking about daily driving and some sport driving (being modest)

Thanks brother. One for fun the other for getting groceries. The part I have enjoyed most is actually getting to feel the difference b/w the N54 and N55 on a daily basis. I'm pretty sure you can guess which I prefer

Does anybody know where I can get factory trim in black for the windows on a 335is convertible. I'm ready to eliminate the chrome around the windows and go all black. Any feedback is greatly appreciated as I have searched and keep coming up short...

Thanks man. That's crazy those things are almost $600 each haha. Got to love BMW

Went with BMS tips because I'm too addicted to the oem "is" exhaust with downpipes.

They look better then I thought they would. Nice!

I had a 330CI I gave to my niece but it had chrome trim and I didn't like the way it looked so I taped off the car and plati dipped all the trim. Came out really well and the car looked so much better.

After seeing how expensive some freaking trim is I'm going the plasti dip route as well. Just something to make it blend in a little better

I was skeptical at first but I think they turned out well. I didn't want them to stick out far and in person they don't come out further than the natural curves of the car. Black would look good.

I have a Space Grey 335is so I think that Black would look best IMO

Can the m3 dct shifter be fitted to our car?

Will it fit? Yes. Can it be coded to work the same way as it does in the M3? Well, that is being worked on as we speak.

anyone have any recommendations on dealing with the exhaust flap rattling?? It only does on cold stars now and it's driving me nuts.... I have my unplugged, so it's always open
