Seems cool, would love to drive one!

stranger · 03-19-2015, 04:58 PM

Not bad for £600

Sedan_Clan · 03-19-2015, 06:24 PM

Oooooo!!!

Cuz5150 · 03-19-2015, 06:30 PM

Daaymn!!! I was looking forward to a video

DandyKing · 03-19-2015, 06:37 PM

$600 aint bad. The rest is a waste especially plunking money into Akro system.

Mako · 03-19-2015, 06:37 PM

wait the exhaust lifts power from 425 to 477, I think not, its called they slapped on the new exhaust and claimed BMW underrated numbers as a "gain".

Also sounds like crank hp numbers as well. Without turbo upgrades I'm fairly certain these stock turbos will not make 550 rwhp. Not enough steam left in them, but will continue to make some more torque though.

Yup, at least Dinan was honest enough not to try to claim it as gains. They did however leave it up to you to come to that conclusion that it was underrated for sure.

Siciliano611 · 03-19-2015, 07:03 PM

Lots of BS here

Needsdecaf · 03-19-2015, 07:12 PM

What interested me was the new springs and aftermarket shocks that tamed some of the wayward behavior.

Correct, all numbers stated in the article are crank. From reading the article it seems like they never dyno'ed the car stock and waited to put it on with the akra and assumed they got ~46 bhp extra from just the exhaust since BMW claims 431bhp. Doubt it was the case but whatever, still a good article, I'd love to learn more about those coilovers

Nice power mods, sound a little sketchy but ok. Side stickers remind me of the boss 302. Saw YMB in person yesterday and it's completely terrible, almost mid-life crisis like. Totally swayed my choice for color on BMWs

Nah LSB in sunlight is still pretty stunning. YMB looks like baby blue while moving....to me at least

Side branding / decals really don't help...

M3LISSA · 03-19-2015, 08:45 PM

I feel like the white stripe and logo makes it a little mustang-ish also...

Sick.
