So you are able to recalculate the checksumms?

Thanks for the confirmation, it was simply the last gasket that wasn't changed recently :-(

hello, let me get this right: you want to modify an engine which uses MS45(.0 or .1?) and so you want to be able to change its mapping? if so, get yourself winols and the correct damos file. i´ll attach the readout from my ms45.1 happy disassembling

I really do not know why more shop owners are not hung by their balls or shot point blank.

Power is nothing without traction, but I have read some impressive #'s.

Glad you got it fixed.. Thats what i figured it was: but then an "expert" was telling us it didnt matter, stupid me for listening to a guy that hasnt sat in one for years :)

10 Rules for a gunfight... just sayin

Thanks! Yep every car runs hard in this vid. That blue cobra is NASTY....

Ok, pulled some tire info http://www.1010tires.com/Tools/Tire-Size-Calculator/285-35R19/275-45R18/285-35R18/275-35R18/285-30R18 stock tire is my hancook i run daily Tire size 1 - My Drag radial thats giving me tons of issues Tire size 2- NTO5R option Tire size 3/4 R888 option

i'm confused... you have been doing all this on the stock pump? i thought you were doing it on the upgraded one.. what's the point of doing it on a pump we already know can't do 100% E85 in just about any decent power situation? will be interesting to see if the upgrade helps, you had me more worried that the upgraded pump +LPFP pressure still failed haha

Thought you would be commenting about the under hood heat & melted parts:confused:

Not sure if this debate is still going on. I agree with everything the folks have said here in regards to the m3. I will add however the parts the OP put on the 335 do not come close. 85 percent of the m3 has different parts than the 335. Some notable stuff is chassis stiffness, extra reinforcements, bracing and stiffness which is a huge part of its ability to handle as well as it does. Its not just the bolt on stuff like shocks etc. It has much beefier strut tower braces, again a big reason for handling. Weight is 3550-3600 btw Hood is aluminum. S65 is shorter and further back in the engine bay making weight distribution better. Mdct is a lot different than the dct in the 335is Subframes themselves are stronger, lighter and have other components that you did not add. Unsprung weight in lighter subframes, lighter wheels and lighter suspension parts is a huge benefit in handling with lower unsprung weight. Carbon fiber roof on the M3 coupe- 60 pounds less weight than the sunroof 335is on the heighest point of the car. M3 seats are the best in any bmw and way better. M3 steering is heavier and the steering rack and ratio is sportier and takes less turning to move the car-less lock to lock and more direct feeling. Really you made a car that is not even close. Not even a good try to be honest. And you "will let it go for 80k"? LOL that is just some hilarious shit Flat paneled underbody really helps reduce lift and stability at high speeds This is just off the top of my head. Its odd the OP replaced the driveshaft. There is no benefit to what you did with that. Even a carbon fiber driveshaft that is much lighter actually makes almost zero difference in performance

Been there... done that... got banned... now here and much happier.

Well, found out the issue finally. Its the freaking 275/45/18 drag radials. Something about the size/circumference is throwing the DMU/DCT off somehow. When i had my street tires on, the stick and paddles were working perfect. We figured it was the paddle at first, but ive been using it for the past 2/3 days with ZERO issues bringing her to 8600rpm to shift. I tossed on the drag radials for tonight, and BOOM, shift issues EVERYWHERE. I can shift sub 8k, but anything close or over it will cause the needle to dance at redline.

Thanks. The resin on the trunk won't accept the adhesive from the vinyl, so we couldn't wrap it =(

Lambo is a panty dropper, no doubt about it. When I was out at Exotic racing, the women were only looking at the Aventador and a few Ferrari's, nobody cared about the Porsche/GTR/Jag/Corvette.

500 shot will do it. dry.

IDK about those rims but otherwise it looks awesome and sounds like it wants to rip your ears off
