You got a video clip? My OFP will be coming off in 2 weeks time and not sure where to remove the res boxes at the same time.

BMW Resonator delete is a sound mod. Doesn’t increase power.

It does.
The goal here is to gain power.

Thank you.
I may need to add resonator.
It sounds perfect under Efficient mode.
Perfect under Sport mode too, unless if you gunning it. Too raspy.
Sport plus, even crazier.

I have taken video, just need to edit and upload it.
Sounds nice on idle, but under load, it just screams.

Can't do dragy run with this. Neighbors and police will be after me.

you got a video clip?? My car is in tomorrow for OPF removal not sure to keep res boxes or not??

Keep it. Trust me.

Been busy, didn't got a chance to edit the video.
In idle, it sounds great.
But WOT, it is nasty.

Nope.
I can't drive hard since it annoys the hell out of me at WOT.

I will put on a resonator after some testing then we'll see.

I have Akrapovic Slip-On system coming in April, and I will test both again with it.

1000% agree. Car sounds mental with OPF removed and stock resonators left in. Crazy sound!! I could not imagine the noise with res removed

thanks for the advice

MSS suspension installed along with 265/295

looks sweet ... how many hours for the install of the springs? trying to get a sense of the expense for the mod ... I'd need to reverse because mine is a 3 year lease.
Black looks great too!

I will post the updates by this weekend.

Work been busy. Going to work on M8C GC tomorrow.

And currently dialing up my suspension and some other mods.

calbear550 · 03-11-2020, 07:09 PM

Is that really the lowest?

The IG car and ben's "rgsport" look lower than that. Guess it'll settle some more.

Yup. It might have settled a little today. I'm good with the fronts at 1 finger gap but the rear is killing me. I'm going to ask for custom springs. If they're not available I'll have to wait for real coil overs.

You want it lower than that?!? Dude it's an suv.

I'm particular about my cars and their wheel/tire/suspension setups and how everything is dialed in. Here is my f10 M5:

r33_RGSport · 03-11-2020, 10:45 PM

I just did this today. Thank you to kramerz500 for sharing his mod.
But I opted for Ceramic Control for both the AC Control and iDrive controller.

Sorry sir.
I was looking and looking, then stumble on Ceramic version.
I have had Ceramic on my F06 650GC and loved it.

I owe you for this mods idea though.
