Right now she is running like a champ with no hiccups at 5psi, maybe a little richer than I would like it to be but not bad at all.

First victim 2010 m3 . From a dig. This babys 1st and 2nd gear is useless. Please not I have it set up for drifting so from a dig I'm at disadvantage but still on 3rd gear I was gone. I felt bad for a second.

Anyways the Z is running really good so far and I cannot wait to see what 10psi will put me at.

Hope to have dyno sheets and final tune before the month of April ends!

congrats! i had started to install mine, then just pulled the motor. an easy trick i found was i cut and v-banded my aam downpipes so they could be attached to the turbo, clear the frame, and sterring shaft, and then clamp the rest on once the motor was in. made removal incredibly easy as well

That's actually a good idea. Since the engine bay is such a tight spot to mess with boot a v-band would be so much easier to mess with.

I have to order a threadstone maf sensor tubing. The plastic maf is a POS. Snapped on me on 3rd gear at 80mph on traffic not fun at all when the car shut down on me and I was in the middle lane!

I have to things to do next, fixed exhaust leak on passenger side and install my oil cooler before final tune. Thinking about installing it together with aftermatket steering cooler on driver side. Its gonna b tight fit but doable!

Happy I do not have boost leak.

Glad to hear you're up and running!

Any thoughts on how your clutch is holding up?

^^Clutch is not bad so far. I know it is going to give up on me at one point but for now it is working mint. I have had it for a year with the flywheel as well and it still feels like when i first bought it. But yeah it is running good.

Car is running better. My Innovative Wideband Sensor Went culu on me (to $hit) and now need a new one but thats easy cake. Doing the Oil cooler installed hopefully before May 13 so i can get to the first drift event. So far 2500 Miles and still rolling, it does need some tweaks. Just changed the 11PSI spring on the Tial BOV for a 7PSI. Huge difference and Glad i did. Brakes right off boost and no Compression Surge.

video below is a quick rolling one with open dumps to atmosphere and running the old 11psi springs.

Thanks Driven. I been using it for a while and it never gave me any issues NA and after 2500 miles FI it went boom on me. So yeah i guess i'll have to buy couple Sensors..

Yess!!!!!!!! BBK is next on the list after i do my oil cooler/warmer removal and do my Oil Cooler installed and PS cooler as well It is kind of scary how fast it gets up to 150 and then gets pretty horrible stopping

RH.. this is also something i read. Mine worked perfectly for over a year and all the sudden boom sensor went out. Pretty weird to me since I did not changed anything on it. I can promise my ground is good though..

^^For sure brother. Hope the MAF works perfect for you

Well figured out the issue with the A/F Wideband... bought the o2 sensor, calibrated it for first time use and Super Toma! working perfectly now..

**i came across this in the UTEC Upgrade Thread in the tunning section and i did not find a response nor a solution to this issue...

Thanks in advance sorry for my poor English I'm from Italy
I am with the same luck just not with UTI but with MPS Uteclogger. I have to drive the car and guess which sell im on and mess with the fuel map to achieve the a/f target i want which is really a pain in the butt. if i could only get the MPS UTec logger to work and not do what ^^ he is having issues with too or had i would be set. Because if i can get a log where it logs accross the power band and shows the a/f across 10%, 20%, 30%, 100% etc i would be set. all i would need to do is combined the rmps and the percentage and hit the block is running rich/lean and boom a/f target achieved but without it functioning im screwed. pretty much im in a guessing game. Right now is at low 14's while cruising and high 10's low 11's on boost but i want to get it to the numbers are as close as possible throught out the runs. I hope i am explaining myself correctly...

as the z seats now..
