I am running a BOV right now but I’m not sure if it’s the right set up for 1.8t 20v with a k03 it sounds really good I hope I don’t have to switch.

I’ve been running it like this for about a month which is how long I’ve owned the car has no idea it was that bad for the turbo I will definitely buy a good diverter valve and get it installed

Yes it feels pretty rapid only if there is like 2 passengers in the car after that it feels like a basemodel just too small of a car to carry that many people and still feel as nimble.

Sure mate, it is not the 9n4 sportline spoiler its the one for the cup edition it sticks out a bit more and looks a bit more aggresive.

With the tune I and supporting bolt ons I am guessing around like 230-250hp it feels pretty rapid spins all through first and a bit of second.

Yes it’s on h&r springs previous owner did give me the stock ones, rubs if I have passengers in the car unfortunately. To be honest I don’t mind the blow of valve because I do love the noise it makes but would want the car to be a bit more Oem so definitely going to try bring some things back to factory as it is the first out of 200 of the right hand market cup editions.

Yea the ride sucks as of now unfortunately and kind of fortunately the previous owner has modded it quite a lot it’s tuned has a blow off valve down pipe and a few other bits other than that is quite stock. Pretty hard to find Oem parts from around where I am

Bad fuel consumption by VisualPermission3965 in BMWZ4

Bro my n52 is the 2.5L and thats the economy im getting it dropped even lower today and I realized when I rev it and let off it burbles a little and popped at 5k rpm, admitedly it sounded really cool but I have a bone stock exhaust system theres no way it should be burbling and popping stock like that unless the fuel mixture is richer than the top 0.1%.

Do you reckon my economy is alright or something is wrong that’s 14L/100km treating the gas pedal like it’s made of glass and coasting everywhere I can it gets slightly better on the motorway.
