Doh major fail on the tyres, they're rt615, not rt615k. not sure how I missed that.

Apparently stock bmws run up to 235 on stock 7.5 wheels ;)

Tyres on

Note the taller than stock 45 profile. Gives a more aggressive look IMO; I've gone off the liquorice strip look. Also makes the speedo more accurate. On the down side, possibly slower acceleration? Not the best idea with stock 3.7 diff I guess, but that may change anyway...

The speedo is run off the abs sensors, so u can run any profile of tyre and the speedo will still. Be accurate

Looking forward to install pics

but how do the abs sensors know what circumference wheel is on the car? it is the circumference which determines the speed at x revs.

so it turns out I had the wrong spark plugs!! Thanks to Daniel Deckers for find that out!

~250hp at flywheel? :shock:

Wtf? Are u supercharged now?

Oops, yeah :lol:

Daniel has been poring over my car with great care to eek out as much as he can from her. Unfortunately things were not as they seemed, which is not surprising if you notice my earlier comments about just barely keeping up with stock NCs at the track. Dodgy plugs! Got a brand new custom tune from Deckspeed as well. This is customised beyond the standard tune.

Here's my drive home from Deckspeed:

Needless to say, the car's full potential has yet to be explored!!
