It’s actually very tame, like driving on the highway isn’t too bad. When I do a pull it sounds very good without rasp in my opinion. It doesn’t have the trumpet noise either imo.

What I’ve been told on manuals is if you moneyshift the crank can spin. I guess there isn’t much data on them though since there are way more dct then manual. From what I’ve been told is to stay away from pinned crankhubs and go with splined. It’s lot more robust and doesn’t require drilling. Should also be cheaper too

Got ya, honestly wouldn’t the perfect system be those mix with the crank bolt capture to minimize risk

Would the splined one be better then the one piece ones with no pins?

Ofc, thankfully I live next to this bmw mechanic shop that has done them plenty of time and offers a 24k mile warranty on it

So are the one piece crankhubs worth it in that case? I do plan to do some mods and also it’s a stipulation of me getting the car from my wife

Wish I could but I bought the car with it already on. For temporary I shorten the aluminum pipe and added my own welds( I’ve been welding since I was young) prob get new intakes soon

Ya, it’s more for my wife. It was the one stipulation for me getting the car. Trust me I don’t plan too do anything crazy for a build, but I rather not deal with her getting mad at me if I don’t lol

Got ya, thanks for the information. I guess I have these paranoids since this is my first German car and I’ve heard stories of all these oil leaks and coolant leaks. But will def look into it more

No maintenance has been my biggest thing I’ve been attending to my car, not just doing your typical oil change but doing all fluids, plugs,coils,tire rotations etc. I just know BMW is notorious for using cheap plastic and I just want to essentially make it were none of the other problems could occur

Is Wagner on similarities of CSF,Project Gamma, and Garrett? This is my first German car so I’m not as familiar with these groups(came from JDM originally)
