ST 135i Build

[N54gasm]

Figured id post an update, built a top mount, down pipe, 3.5" exhaust, and oh boy what fun that was! lol. Strapped on the s366 I had laying around from an old build, and boom! Goal is 700 on the stock motor/trans and build the spares over the winter I have.

Thanks. Waiting on more fittings so I can route the line better for the mac valve, but otherwords came out nicely. . . Now lets see how long I can get the o2's to last lol

Bosch seem to work great on the doc race manifolds and all the single kits I put on for customers. Wanna make me a manifold?

Haha, I have a few friends that want one, and if I do that, ill end up making a few. But there are some nice options out there already lol. Also that is good to hear. Cant go wrong with a lifetime warranty either ha

Some updates, currently have some drag radials in the rear, race master 255/45r17, and clearly need more. Currently looking into a lsd and suspension upgrades and some wider rears. . .

Late post, but installed new suspension goodies, as well as a mfactory lsd, and lets just say she hooks fairly decent now

Was the LSD install difficult?
