Long time lurker pulls his finger out & finally becomes a member

[Jobe0074]

Gday all (AUS newbie)
Long time lurker mercilessly just taking from the forum over the past few years finally thinks he give something back & sign up…

2015 M135i ZF auto N55 FBO
BCS turbo back exhaust
CP/Inlets MST
IC
Dorch stage 2 HPFP
PR coils / 97506 (moving to the B58 nexsys set up)
Turbo smart DV
AFE closed intake
Mosselman thermostat
VTT crank capture / seal guard
Recent walnut blast & ZF filter / oil replacement
E50 wedge custom tune from Steve

Possible PS2 & LSD install looming…

All mods done solo by me - grey hairs I’ve gained from the endless tinkering & cash splashing…we wouldn’t have it any other way

Anyways, good to be here

Welcome! N54/N55 ownership is a stressful yet delightful experience.

 

[Jobe0074]

Thanks brother! Totally - guess we’re all here because we like to mod / tinker with the cars
Good when things just “work” (not always the case though)

 

[wheela]

Another n55, welcome!!!

 

[wheela]

How are you liking that Dorch stage 2?

 

[Jobe0074]

Thanks guys & the dorch has been a good option thus far
Quite an Easy install & have cranked the ethanol up to a 50mix
Not cheap but would recommend if you’re keen to up the E content from 30+

[Jobe0074]

Thanks for the welcomes you guys!

Where exactly was your finger ?

 

[Jobe0074]

Ha well it wasn’t in my a$s, although there’s a few suggestions as to where the saying “pull your finger out” comes from -
1 suggestion is:
Referring to pilots in WW1 & WW2 leaving their finger in the firing mechanism too long and wasting their ammunition too quickly….
So there you go

I like urban dictionary explaining that "apparently, having your finger up your ass interferes with efficiency"

 

[Jobe0074]

Ha - good to see I’m literally getting more traction from the finger up the shitter comment than my N55

Maybe while you were "sitting around with your thumb up your bum" the community moved onto the B58..... ?

I've procrastinated over not doing a build thread for about 10yrs, by the looks of it i might need another 10yrs to come up with a thread title....
