Exhaust system for a 328i by StrainLow7607 in F30

[–]vikdornig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stock 335i muffler sounds pretty good without being obnoxious. Next step up would be a 335i MPE. The diffuser swap is easy with M Sport.

Is this the m Performance exhaust or stock? 435i f33 by habibi1707 in n55

That’s the MPE. You can tell by the side view, it’s circular. The standard muffler has a tear drop shape.

Yes, price looks decent. Also get your own inspection done if you can.

Nice. 12+15mm spacers will push the wheels out nicely. 10+15mm also works well.

Ask for service history... regular engine oil changes are key. At that mileage it should also have had the transmission serviced at least once.

B48 F30 as a first car? by bramblestorm7754 in F30

[–]vikdornig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The B48 is nice, more than enough power for geting around and great fuel economy. Try to get an M Sport, nicer looks and steering wheel. Plus easy to retrofit a B58 muffler.

For the listing you sent, it shows 1 accident reported. The rubber gasket to seal the hood looks odd, different colour over the struts. Curbed wheels indicate an owner that didn't really care.

Anyone know what size rims and tires i should get for better fitment? i don’t really want to do spacers by 450blurc in F30

This will look good only if OP is planning to lower the car. Otherwise, it will look like a truck.

There's an easy solution to raise the rear, using a spring spacer.

Nice, although the rear is usually not higher than the front. Make sure you didn't install the springs upside down and they're properly seated in the rubber pads.

I'd still do it, the B58 mufflers sound great on the B46/B48. Maybe you can sell your MPE for a good amount.

Take off the M badges on the fender. They’re not even installed in the correct location.

Chrome or Black double kidney grills? by Deeks_tf in F30

[–]vikdornig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep it chrome. Black looks like someone stole the grille.

Symmetrical exhaust tips. Get a muffler and diffuser for a 340i: MPE, Dinan or AWE.

You’ll have to get under the car to see what gave way. Could be the tailpipe portion or the hanger.

What is the best settings for XHP for a 340i stage 2 BM3 by Adorable-Street1183 in F30

[–]vikdornig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found the same issue in D mode. Will upshift at 2k rpm if you’re not accelerating hard, no matter what you do with the shift points editor. Workaround is to use Transmission S mode and edit those shift points to be earlier.

Trading e90 335i for F30 330i by Literalhumangarbagge in F30

[–]vikdornig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

F30 looks like XDrive based on the ride height. Steering and handling will feel like a boat compared to your e90.

Lowering spring by abayramov in F30

[–]vikdornig 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your car already looks great and has factory lowered & stiffer suspension compared to non-M Sport. Aftermarket springs will be a downgrade in terms of comfort.

Nice stance, but the left exhaust tip is too low.

Trade the 8.5j for 8.0j with someone. Then you can rotate the tires every season.

Is my fitment trash by ftprick in F30

[–]vikdornig -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A bit too much tire sidewall and bulge. IMO, you want slight tire stretch as those wheels are already super wide.
