I like the snub nose attachment. Gonna have to look into that for me.
How'd the wheel cleaner work out?
Also loving the ///M sign on the wall

Do you have the Eventuri intake or where did you buy the scoops?

If your going with a foam canon setup I’d recommend the snub for sure just for convienence.

Wheel cleaner worked well…I let it sit for the recommended time and then used my chemical guys rimpaca brush. Don’t love this brush as it’s a little big to fit between the tight spaces on these wheels. Then power washed clean followed by the foam cannon. After I was done I still noticed some specs of brake dust residue which I quickly cleaned up with a micro fiber towel.

X3M located in Norway, fitted with 11mm spacers at the front and 15mm spacers at the back. Also have fitted LCI competition wheels and supersprint exhaust. Next stop is lowering

Moved it into the shop in preparation to install the MSS kit.
Just waiting for a couple things and some motivation...

Just realized again how much I like my X3MC after driving something else. Had the opportunity to get some seat time in my favorite color MBB, XM. Will update after a few more days of driving tbe XM.
The XM is amazing, but for me the X3MC is perfect for my needs.

What is the power button for right by the light for your wireless charger?

I have the same wireless charger. It’s aftermarket, bought mine on Amazon for $60.


The button just turns the wireless charger on/off.

I just picked up my X3M. Highly disappointed in the exhaust.
I see a lot of people recommend midpipe - might try to pick up a preowned Eisenman on the forum.
Would that solve the issue?
How is the valvetronic exhaust?
Dont really want to deal w valves.

I’m partial but I like the resonated AA midpipe seems to have a nice tone.

Don't the midpipes eliminate the secondary cats? Isn't that bad in regards to passing emissions testing?

[reedcour]

We don't have emission test in Idaho.

Midpipes only remove resonators so it shouldn't impact emissions. Somewhat unrelated but luckily, our cats are tucked up in the engine bay making our cars unlikely targets for the current epidemic of catalytic converter thefts in California.

[reedcour]

has anyone gone to their local muffler shop to do the midpipe? its not that many bends?
one concern would be the flange

I don't think that is correct. I have done a bunch of digging and from what I am seeing the 'secondary cats' are a part of the midpipe. I really want to install one but I don't want to have to deal with ANY emissions BS. Just too much hassle.

EDIT: From what I can tell and have read, there are no sensors after the 'secondary cats' so I am assuming the computer wouldn't know about the midpipe and therefore it would pass emissions in Texas anyway.

Talked to Ben r33_RGSport and confirmed there are secondary cats on the midpipe but no sensors so swapping to an ER midpipe won't upset the computer or emissions inspection via OBD2. If they do a visual inspection of course they will not be there. In my state there is no visual.

Ordered the ER pipe from Ben today while it is on sale.

Doh! I stand corrected. CA has some pretty strict emissions requirements which includes a visual so even though it may pass the sniff test if the tester is finicky they could flag it.
