been a busy few weeks. took a couple of tries, but had to get a customized install of the Zeitronix Ethanol CANBUS kit with the sensor against the firewall. But happy to report that it's communicating with MHD and is worked as intended. Really coming in handy with the proper FlexFuel file that is being worked on at the moment. Max power blend will be E40 and dialing in the blends in between as well. This picture also shows the billet shift paddles and Coby Wheel steering wheel nicely too. on another note, crystalworks will be happy to know that the wider fender flares are on, along with 5mmF/15mmR spacers. Went ahead and did r33_RGSport painted reflectors front and rear too. Had a friend who's an automotive photographer take a few photos the other day.

Welp, it was only a matter of time since brakes are due in the next 5k miles anyways. Got big Brembo's on order from dentprotony@gmail.com. Can't wait!

Have you dyno'd the car with the E-blend and HPFP?

Not yet, waiting for the FMIC to get here and install so I don't heat soak between runs. Once I do that it's ready since the map is dialed in now thanks to the homie WOT808.

nice that's exciting. How's the noise level with the catless DP and vibrant muffler?

It's worth it Unless you're keeping your X5 forever you can always remove it prior to sale, there's not many of these sets around and they'll surely sell fast on the used market. |

Part of me also feels like I screwed myself by piecing it together but oh well, c'est la vie.

Interesting. In that I got the OEM Carbon fiber set up from BMW directly and the piece in the middle on mine has Alcântara with M Performance logo. Yours has the black plastic. Looks great BTW!

Ride height adjusted and aligned, VRSF FMIC installed, and oil changed with Motul 5w40 and upgraded to the Future Classic Billet Oil Filter Housing. 465xx miles. Also got sick of the euro plate and yellow fogs. Looks cleaner.

Dude, the couplers and the charge pipe connections were a PAIN. had to end up trimming the coupler from my ER charge pipe to the lower charge pipe to get everything to clear and click.
AFE unit wasn't playing nice with fuel trims during tuning because of the stage 2 piece for the MAF so it's gone.
