    What's the difference with these compared to just a muffler delete on my 95 740.
    Lets get the party started before it's my bedtime.

    It's mostly a sound profile thing, I think (but not a professional) that it also helps with low end torque but that could be a butt dyno thing. Plus I want it to look somewhat stock.

    Some Places remain unknown because no one has ventured forth. Others remain so because no one has ever come back......

    Be wary, the e39 sport seats are not the same and do not have the articulated upper back. As for the mufflers eBay. Is your best bet.

    Replaced the low and high beam standart halogen bulbs with blue halogen bulbs but it hasn't changed a bit in the color.. the low beam bulb is Sportlight Ultra 4200K if that helps in any way, the high beam I'm not sure since I swapped them out from another car, but they should be blue aswell. The low beam is shining brighter as it's labeled but it certainly hasn't changed the overall color. May someone know why it won't shine blue or white?

    Thanks in advance!

    Not today - but shipped the NBT brain off to our resident FIXEL master for some upgrades & scored an appropriate center console to accommodate the iDrive.

    As the S62 is approaching 2000 miles, Im about to order some 10W-60 motor oil for it's first oil change after the swap.

    I picked up a 2002 X5 in December, and have gotten everything together for the transmission/transfer case/front driveshaft replacement, which I hope happens next weekend. Red Line synthetic fluid, a new drain line on the supercharger (which I just had Vortech rebuild) and a new timing chain tensioner. Also have the subframe bushings waiting to go in! Ive only driven it 20 miles or so since its delivery on 12/25/18.

    NBT upgrades you say? I need ideas to mount the controller so if you could post up when you get to that point.

    The controller actually fits snugly in the upper cubby hole, mine has been there for I guess a year. What Im doing now is replacing the entire center
    panel with a custom made one that is cut out for iDrive and the lock/hazard button. A BimmerBoard member had some made about 4 years ago. A1.JPGA2.jpg
    As they are aluminum, I plan to cover mine in sand or black leather to match the interior.

    Awesome they still make them? I've never been a fan of the controller mounted on the cubby door. Although I have eliminated the door I'd still like to have the controller mounted proper.
