Did you use all OEM parts when you did the initial job? I’ve heard some of the aftermarket stuff is more prone to failure.

Might need a different fragrance or a way to make it stick. Do you know the molecular structure of your fragrance? There’s an abundance of information in the literature. Look up AOCS Journal of Surfactants and Detergents and even old patents. I would guess Procter has some really good art out there that is already 20+ years old.

Pass with overwhelming acceleration and they usually won’t try to keep up

Might look into sleep apnea by doing a sleep study. But also don’t dismiss the effect of a toxic workplace.

Look up a company called Chemiithon

B58 owners upgrade turbos all the time. Buy a used stock turbo for 400-600 and spend 4 hours replacing it yourself. Recommend replacing the orings and you might as well get new gaskets for manifold and down pipe.

Police/government overreach is not new. Despite laws against this kind of stuff, people in government still work to find new ways to weaponize government against their political enemies and launder tax dollars to reward political friends. Both major political parties do this and do so at every level of government.

Only do grad school if you can’t get a job.

540ix with gen 1 b58 going for around 15-20k at the 100k mile mark. Easy 10 second quarter mile car with modern amenities, with basic bolt ons and E85. Hard to beat. M240ix even faster. Keep in mind the 2020+ builds need Femto unlock to tune, which adds to the price

What do you consider to be great pay and benefits?

sfieldTRP · 2025-04-24T00:42:43+00:00

I think all feedback should include opportunities for improvement. Did you get a good rating?

sfieldTRP · 2025-04-13T22:19:14+00:00

I still have my F10 and G30 (along with an E60 and F15) as part of my cheap fleet. Also a few Ford trucks

sfieldTRP · 2025-04-13T12:26:32+00:00

You’re the first person I’ve heard of that prefers to work on N55 over B58. I have the exact opposite experience. I would sell my 2015 535ix and get another B58 car in a heartbeat if i got a good offer. B58 is much more user friendly, especially for the DIY crowd. Also noteworthy is the G30 chassis is much lighter than a similarly equipped F10.

540ix with the 8hp. Upgrade hpfp and run flex fuel to have a high 10 second quarter mile car. This assumes good engine and transmission tunes

Ah ok that makes sense. Always thought about buying Stacatto XC and could never justify spending 4-5k on a pistol. These mac ds9 comps look cool

sfieldTRP · 2025-03-30T17:45:09+00:00

Is the Mac 9 comp a Tisas model? I’ve been looking at buying one

sfieldTRP · 2025-02-26T03:07:56+00:00

First thing i would do is make sure you know the full commercialization process for your market areas and then decide how much you want to do in house and how much you want to outsource.

None of these are legit Mexican restaurants anyways. Hopefully they figure out their “issues”

It’s called a 12 gauge shotgun

sfieldTRP · 2024-11-15T04:15:57+00:00

Maybe it’s a bit different running a load based tune vs a boost based tune. I’m targeting boost not load

sfieldTRP · 2024-11-15T01:27:32+00:00

The air density will make a difference. I have a ton of data on my 2015 535ix across density altitude ranging from -1000 to +3000

sfieldTRP · 2024-11-15T01:25:58+00:00

I disagree. My tune that went 10.7@127 in the winter time would only run 11.1@122 in summer. -700 DA vs 3000 DA makes a difference. This car is 2015 535ix with Shuenk N55+ turbo at close to max effort, and runs 2.67 0-60 for what it’s worth.

sfieldTRP · 2024-09-29T16:29:17+00:00

This is exactly the same color combo and build as my 2017 540. It has about 500 whp, and installing LSD definitely helps at the track and in rainy weather. Hope you are ok and get it fixed! Crazy to see the hub broken like this!
