With the Vishnu flash, and a downpipe, what would your guess be for rWhp be?

depending on what version is out when the 135 debuts, i would say high 3xx range w/ tq over 400 :eek:

Could make for a REALLY fun ride

Chip i suppose

Is the vishnu ecu a reflash of the existing stock ecu or a piggyback unit?

its not a reflash. Its removable at anytime

The chip and downpipe would be in my possession before I bring the car home :D

The chip should be a factory installed option..

I could see it now on the final paperwork..
Check here for the extended warranty..
Check here for the extra insurance BS..
Check here for chip installation..

"Ok sir, let us wash it, fill her up with gas, and install that chip and it will be ready to go!"

first and most important thing is a limited slip then a mild boost increase. see how it feels on the track and then go from there

errr i forgot about the clutch delay valve... removing it will be my first mod.

Not familiar with this? Can you elaborate...

It's a valve in the hydraulic line going to the clutch. It prevents the clutch from engaging to quickly. it is supposed to decrease driveline ware from dropping the clutch to quickly. it really just screws up your timing while shifting and wares your clutch more quickly. hers a better explanation. :)

I live in Germany where my 135i is on order (30 April delivery). I did some sustained 155 mph runs in the test car a few weeks ago. Car was a bit unstable at speed. Suspension seemed to make the car float a bit. My first mod will be suspension parts (KW V3 shocks, H&R sway bars, and H&R wheel spacers). BTW, the brakes are amazing! Really scrubs off high speed like it was nothing...
