what does misha think of e92 chassis 335i ?,im currently running mhd stage 2,,fitted bilistein b12 pro kit(eibach springs) with p4s recently but it feels sketchy as hell over 125mph,to much moving around at the back on mine ,thinking my bushes are worn ,car actually frigtens me with about 390 at the wheels ,ive been thinking about water cooled I/C sprayer or Nitrous jets mounted infront of the intercooler ,did this guy have a 7.5 stepped intercooler do you know?,love the content,im a daily visitor

[@janbeck335]

Try Diff-lock and M3 (or solid Alu) rear support member silentblocks… it solved this fishing rear feel for me… I have replaced bit by bit - new shocks, 4 upper trailing arms (got M3 ones), lower trailing arms (unibal), M3 rear stabilisator… major improvement after M3 support frame sltbks, game changer after Diff-lock (or Diff brace).

As a Single Turbo N54 owner make sure to upgrade to a CSF radiator, VRSF 7.5 Race Intercooler, and dual oil coolers and slightly thicker oil for track days. Keep your fans on Sport cooling through MHD! Will definitely keep those temps in check!

[@b00st3d92]

Update….keep your fans or Track or Race cooling. It’s an option now on MHD….keeps the fans always on for maximum cooling

Head, alternator, crank, and few more bits are still stock, 2006 parts.

Changed compression ration for the engine and few other bits + swapped to Auto 8HP from Manual gearbox. I couldn't use my previous fully tweaked maps capable of up to 840hp as they would cause issues. This starter map wasn't scaling PI correctly wtih above 40% ethanol content and my STFT's were maxing out occasinally but due to lack of time (Misha on very tight schedule) I could't go to petrol station and top up normal petrol to lower ethanol in the tank. We did a lap with 53% E. I had a nice email from Ken (WedgePerformance) today and we will get mapping where it needs to be very soon, he just have no time this week due to personal reasons.
