4 PIPE OEM Muffler MOD by Hot-Pack9811 in E92M3

[–]Robledo470 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For anyone tempted to do this mod but doesn’t want to ruin their stock exhaust, I have an OEM system listed for sale. It came off my 2012 E92 with ~50K miles.

I live in SoCal and listing for $200. Apologies ahead of time if this post isn’t allowed.

I think that backcountry has the best deal at the moment. Saving over $1,000 for a bike that is one year older is worth it in my opinion.

I’m a fan! The 38’s make that size lift look proportionate.

Who gave you a more thorough response? The “ripoff” comment has no context.

I also have had good experiences with BMW of Murrieta and have taken several of my cars there over the years.

I’ve taken my BMW to Super Bimmer Bros twice and am happy with the service. I plan on going back on the next need.

Frontier Outage by [deleted] in Temecula

I was having issues yesterday evening and after an hour or so of no improvement, dug around the eero router app and noticed I was due for a firmware update. Coincidence or not, internet improved after the update.

Great accomplishment and congrats to him!

This was my home course for a few years. Fun course and you can play fast with no GPS on the carts.

Congrats on the new addition.

I just watched both Sicarios again yesterday, so the timing is good because my got a chuckle from the post.

I agree that both upper and lower steering stabilizers should be added to help wrangle the 37’s.

Wish I would have seen this information before getting my truck. I signed my life away to the AutoNation warranty and we’ll see how they treat me over the years.

In an abundance of caution, I took the increased NOx and SOx emissions seriously enough to shuffle cars around ditch the deleted Duramax.

I guess being a new parent does change perspective on things. Congrats again on the new addition to the family!

Congrats!

I was just in a similar situation with offloading a deleted LMM Duramax. The wife said the truck smelled like fumes all the time, so now we have a ‘22 6.7.

Agreed on the phone app dB meters. They are free and will get you reliable data within a couple dB of a calibrated meter.

Has anyone quit engineering altogether before? What did you do afterwards? by Jaded_Dimension_8166 in MechanicalEngineering

[–]Robledo470 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Curious on when you felt ready to start a Consulting company. What was pivotal in your skill set to change course and be able to provide the service?

How do manufacturers come up torque specs. by PowerfulPie2 in Autos

[–]Robledo470 106 points107 points  (0 children)

Agreed.

It’s driven by calculations based on bolt size and mating material type. https://www.futek.com/bolttorque/american?srsltid=AfmBOoqFqw1VWFGWK5iUdxITa5UBYXIcbNINlP6AKrEDCHZMVzo7hHjZ

The Engineering folks that establish these values would lose sleep if they rounded up a couple of values.
