Hahaha I ran out of time I was at a buddies house who lives 4 1/2 hours from my house so I'm cool with it and even though I got to go back in I don't care I'm gonna clean a few things there's a bunch of road grime and shit all over my starter for some odd reason

Other than removing the under body support plate that's really the only inconvenience

And the positive side is that I get to feel it in steps

I did the charge pipe the first night

So far I'm fucking impressed

Glad I waited actually to see how much the addition of the DV feels separately
Thanks for the reply.

I look forward to hearing your impressions of the DV as well.

I agree with doing the mods one at a time so you can judge them better, but since I'll have a shop do the install I think it will be a bit more cost efficient to do the inlet and DV together.

Dropped the M2 off at EAS for a 20,000 mile freshen up. New Akebono Euro pads, high temp brake fluid, 1 step colder plugs, and an oil change.

No it's someone in New Jersey. He does repairs on ecu's and the key mods. It's a 1 day turnaround for folks in the US.

Thumbs down

Got whipped by a beautiful black, modified F80 M3 from a 60 kick

Me FBO 2017 N55 M2
BM3 Stage 2 93

Him, lowered F80 looking suspiciously polished.

We lined up and I got the hit, aaaaand it did not end well for me.

No idea what a 500+ whp F80 traps in the quarter but I’m guessing 5-7mph more than my M2.

Here I was thinking I’d pick off a stock M3 and show him some tails. Denied!

Bootmod install: Stg 1 (93) and Stg 2 (93) test drives

Installed Bootmod on my newly out of warranty 2018 M2 (7 spd auto). Stg 1 (93) was a nice, torque off the bottom upgrade. I was not expecting much out of Stg 2 & was I surprised. The butt dyno tells me this is 15% above stock, holy hell, she pulls. Breaks traction in 3 gears and fishtails on those 13k michelins like you wouldn't believe. Put her back in sport + with traction control to keep the trees out of the way. Looking forward to a roll with the local Subaru and Supra heroes.

2018 laguna beach M2, my 4th. Going to keep this one for a good long while.

To date: None. When I take her off the road for winter, catted downpipe and intercooler. To be honest, the catted downpipe threads and experiences are difficult to follow. There are surely multi year experiences with the main players. I'd like to benefit from those in making that decision.

Stage 2 requires an IC and either catted or catless DP. I suggest you flash back to Stage 1 using the 91 map and 93 octane.
