Can anyone recommend a good exhaust shop? I need to get my exhaust straightened out a little (bend some hangers) and possibly cut the tips back 1 inch.

I'm loving these things....can't decide what like more; the power, the sound, or my old units not smoking

Am I going? Of course. Btw, are you not racing because of your mother in law? What?! I want to see those RB's man.

I used Marco muffler. They were good and fairly priced.

I'm not going because I have a brand new LSD which I don't want to destroy. I might do a few runs but with easy launches....I'm sure I can still trap 115+

Thanks, I'll check out Macro. (Fulton or Aurburn Ave?)

I understand. Are you going to drain and refill soon too? It's easy to do if you have ramps and jacks. Just make sure you get the right fluid.

I went to the Fulton shop. Might want to check their website too. I think they have a coupon there. Also, you get those spacers yet? I need to test fit these wheels.

I have his old spacers. Dan, can you stop by tonight? I'll pop them off.

Syndicategt · 10-15-2011, 03:44 PM

Just wanted to say thanks for the shop recommendations.

Radial Tire - best tire shop I ever been too and priced very very well. Not a single scratch on my new rims and filled the tires with Nitrogen.
Marco Exhaust - Did an excellent job on my exhaust, speedy and priced well.

PlanB · 10-15-2011, 06:16 PM

What's up guys. Haven't checked in for a while, but still considering the e90. Can anyone tell me if the M style front bumper is available for LCI or just pre LCI.
Thanks in advance.

Sorry for missing this. Yeah, I got the spacers from Will. I now must attempt to install these drags. Hoping they will fit! Fingers crossed!

Yes, they make the M tech bumper for both LCI and pre-LCI. Check out http://getbmwparts.com/ or give Jay@ModProjekt a PM. Good luck on your e90! Prices might have dropped since they just released the new F30.

Eric, could I borrow the 5mm? I want to see if my rears will fit with the 5's (10's are just too much with the PSS). Are they hub centric? Didn't even know they could go under 10mm.

Syndicategt · 10-16-2011, 05:49 PM

Jay, what happened to your car?

Waterpump failed... last night while driving to my lady's house. Had to have Roadside Assistance come get it and take it to the dealership....

Syndicategt · 10-16-2011, 08:30 PM

Full water pump or thermostat? I was in a drive though once and I got an engine overheat warning...turned out to be my thermostat went haywire. Was a lot less expensive than the pump to fix.

5mm are not hub centric. since its only 5mm thick, they do not have the lip on it. you can try if you want.

Happy Sunday!

Yeah, let's get more out there! Make it a mini meet.

Btw, my battery is completely dead. Looks like I'm buying a new one today or tomorrow. $155-200

Syndicategt · 10-23-2011, 02:12 PM

Possibly go with a lightweight Braille? I wonder if you have something shorting out your battery.

Syndicategt · 10-25-2011, 05:31 PM

Anyone going to the track tomorrow? Don't think I'll be going unless there are a bunch of you showing up.

tmo335tt · 10-26-2011, 03:42 PM
