fr8t the first time to see how the revs rise all the way will shock you!! i promise you will love it!! i just wish their was alittle more noise from the charger, luckily as were both roadster we hear more than the coupes, when you hit high revs you get mad induction noise!! the s54 with boost is a thing of beauty! please please please post detailed pics of the pipework and post some vids real soon.

It really freaks my wife out, but she loves it. That being said, the VT-2 should really knock your socks off. Can't wait to here your review. Oh yeah, and she screams too. The induction noise really is very nice.

zm4000 what i meant was their alot of issue that can potentially go wring but then again to be honest the same issues happen on bone stock cars so that was a silly comment, please disregard it, fr8t, does it pull to the redline you ask???? hell yeah and then some, does it push you back in your seat??? hell yeah infact you can actually feel the tyres squishing into the road at high revs, infact i did a high rev 2nd to 3rd change in the dry earlier in the week and the traction control light started to flash ;-) admittedly it was a poor surface but still...... very impressive, 6th gear crusing a motorway speeds its just a breeze, my factory fresh PS2s are being used to their full potential, if you havent uprated your brakes, youll need to definatly, fr8 may i also suggest a bmw strutbrace, we have roadsters, and altho they are hugely stiff (stiffer then a e46 m3 coupe infact) with the xtra power its really good to tie the front end down...... plenty of clearance over the intake, on the track i really noticed a difference in my roady....... fr8 just for you bro....................

Very cool! Thanks man. Your description of the cars performance is getting me fired up. Love the strut brace...you order it through BMW? I will definitely upgrade the brakes. I have soft drag radials in 285 size, so I look forward the positive acceleration. Nothing like the feeling of being pushed back in your seat with Mad induction sound |
