Good stuff, I'm not a big fan of them myself, so I'd prefer you're old ones.

Well, Ive also fitted an EGR valve replacement pipe, this has made the car rev better, pull harder, and there is damn near no black smoke now  (this smokes less than when it was std, never mind following a re-map) Next Thursday its booked in to Peco, as they are using the car to make a stainless backbox and take a pattern from it ....apparently, other backboxes for the 330's free up about 10bhp

Nice colour... and nice wheels! lol. Copy cat! ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v206/ffoc_al/New%203/CIMG1531.jpg) Is it the same colour? Mine is called "Ruby Red II" - was lead to believe I have the only coupe in the country in the colour, so yours may be one of the few estates? Or it may be slightly different?

i'm laughing to think BMW's colour chart has Maroon on it lol.
I like the words Ruby Red II lol
They look very similar allowing for the different light conditions.

As part of an SXOC rolling road I got the BMW on there. Not yet had the 180 mapped, so this was the next choice. Pretty happy, 219bhp and 410lb/ft torque - which was the highest torque figure of the day - even beating some 400bhp 200's Not sure of the std torque figure, but the std bhp is 184, so 35 over std - Im pretty happy - especially when its doing 45mpg round town ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v247/StuyMac/DSCF0333.jpg)
