if people wondering if HIFI to Individual upgrade worth it > no. Hifi was more clear on low-med volume, individual are better full blast, but on low volume there's no high freq. Individual sound like muffled on talking radio, so you increase the highs, and when you want to crank up the volume, the highs bust your ears. So my guess your install should be better than the hassle I got to swap the freaking expensive individual audio. (same as you I have a dedicated home theatre, atmos, 7.2.2), I'm not a audiophile, but enjoy it, and if I said individual is average, then it is for sure. Note I added a 10'' sub, since the under seats subs were too weak.

The stereo system in my 335i n54 sounded good but yes it does lack clear high's when volume increases and the mids were just muffled. I too upgraded to the alpha 1's (+ the new amp) a few years ago and love it. I also took it a next level up and replaced the head unit with an android screen so I can have CarPlay and BT etc. The Alpha 1 speaker upgrade really is great, very clear high's and mids restored as they should be. The base also improved but I personally couldn't tell a difference in base between the factory speaker and the new one in omph but it did increase rattles. I then installed some sound deadening material in both front door's which was "fun" but well worth it. PS. Great plug-n-play install. PSS. I'd suggest to people to upgrade the amp first and test it with your current speakers, you'll get a nice boost in performance just with that, but yea if you want the full package go for the whole system.

Did you straighten out that fuel pump set up? I’m gonna buy the fuel it stage 2 kit, which comes with a walbro 450 a billet mount & a metal try that sits at the bottom if your factory bucket. Then for another $120 I’m gonna buy another walbro 450 & put that in my bucket. So initially I’ll have a stage 3 pump twin 450’s but the second one will only come on 13psi & above. My JB4 port injection controller will take care of the injectors feeding meth in there….😄

I made it simple this time around and used the kit from RB Turbo. It's identical as outlined but the delete fitting has an integrated pcv valve with a barbed end for the hose. Initially I did the ADE delete fitting but they're never in stock so I went another route. But then I just ground the threads down to use a 1/2" hose to go into the pcv valve if memory serves me right.

( thought it was oil pan gasket was the oil leka originally cause it was 40K miles old.. good thing i pulled it off, there was some hardened chunks from the old old gasket in the pan.. i also had the VAC motorsport baffle welded in) had an issue with ECS tuning getting me parts/updates cause they lost the package.. so i ordered replacements at FCP Euro, cause at least FCP will grab shit off the shelf and fill a new box if stuff goes missing and if it does happen to show up on your doorstep, they'll get you a fedex label to RMA. well.. guess what showed up today? my ECS tuning parts and clutch alignment tool ( i have the 8 bolt) well.. now i'll have spares when i need to do the clutch again.. question now is.. do i spend money on a lightweight flywheel and 335IS or Spec Stage 2 clutch? or just get 335IS clutch keep the current flywheel and hit it with a little 500 grit sand paper and the pressure washer to get all the oil and grease out, and then focus on getting replacement turbos, and the rear diff/subframe. but even then i need to get my low pressure sensor working again too.. when it rains it pours.. damn car..

6:10 Around this point in the video he's wondering what he can do to get traction on the car. We'll I don't know that he would be able to have traction at those power levels no matter what tires he would be running. Of course stickier the better but short of pulling power out at certain moments and/or through certain gears (which you can do with apps like XHP and X Delete). But I'm running a similar set up but with 17t upgraded twins which just pour on the torque at low speeds and off the line. (Which i like lol) but even if I have 4X4 turned on for race mode I can't stop all four wheels from spinning through first second and even third! So I don't know other that feathering or just remapping the throttle that there's much he can do about the spin. 😮😂❤
