The 3d lip actually looks good in black. Matches the performance grills and the wheels. Not a fan of the blue interior lighting though.

I went with the dual diverter valves (DDV) instead of the BOV because I did not want the blow off noise (actually my wife did not want it - she just wanted to hear the roar of the Eisenmann Race Exhaust on her car). However, either serves the same function - letting the turbos spin up a little faster.

The FMIC is a bargain imho because I had all of our other modifications installed on the car first, including the ESS Stage II tune before the FMIC was added a couple of weeks later. That delay was necessary because it took a couple of trips to Stett for them to perfect the mounting bracket for the e89 (ours was the test bed for the FMIC). So, that is a long way of saying that once the FMIC was added you could tell without question that it pulled harder and longer than the stock unit. I am sold on the benefits of the FMIC and it should help long term reliability with the colder intake temperatures.

the problem to install the FMIC is one of the pipes is not long enough for both sides, but i think it's easy to fix by using another pipe or you can leave it there, it wont affect the fmic.
For the diverter valve, I havent installed it yet, still struggling with the whoooosh sound it will make...

I saw your ride at Autosalon, my mate is friends with some of the Hawthorne tyres shop owners. Asked if you were around but they said you just went left to pick up the gf.

Howd you go with the Stett FMIC fitting now? Any new pics?
