Just did an VRSF intercooler for someone else the other day, it's the 7" one which require modification, but it wasn't that bad. The thing is massive compare to the factory one.

Here are some pics.

As far as I'm aware the AR design dps have better welds? lol hence the extra $ but both give the same power gains.

$300, might be cheaper to do a diy but I don't have the patience to wrap things hahaha I tried doing the windows trims myself and gave up after 5mins.

Not right now but when I get a chance I'll do a proper photoshoot so you can cleary see the black roof on a space gray.
Looks awesome I reckon on a space gray, black roof on a bmw looks good in any colour.

19X9.5 +22 all around, rears are not that aggressive.
I'm thinking on getting forgsters F14s in super deep concave in 9.5 fronts and 11 at the rear with low offsets.

She'll fit beautifully, I'm running same sizes on the rear.

Depending in how much camber you want to run, you'll definitely need a guard shave, and a guard pull if you want to sit at around 2 degrees.

Thanks mate! What modifications do you have in the rear to fit those specs and do you have any rubbing issues in the rear?

I'm rubbing heaps with the rears, my rears have been rolled twice now and it's the most they can do without damaging the panel/paint. Don't really want to be running too much camber, may resort to shaving the rears to give more clearance.

Varrstoen ES1 (Hyper Silver)
19x9.5 +20 (225/35/19 Kumhos)
19x11 +25 (265/30/19 Kumhos)

Silver is growing on me, so used to having black wheels on my cars.






Also got myself the Blackvue Full HD dash cam, awesome little gadget.

Few things:

- 265/30 rears
- Roll
- Knowing where to shave at the rear (section where bumper meets guard)
- Guard Pull

I'm pretty sure those are the specs Allen used to run. But not 100% on what tyre sizes he had, but I think the rear was a 245.



When I ran them I used a 245 on the back and front 235, but I had shaved guards so easier to fit.. So basically just think of a smaller tyre unless you want to avoid too much stretch.

Bam!



That looks killer dude! That's essentially the exact setup I wanted to run years ago after seeing modquench's SGM car:

http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=969038

I would have done it, but didnt want to sacrifice grip running crazy camber and at the time it was suggested I would need a 245 rear...

So does it majorly effect handling and grip going so wide on the rear?
