Was me! Sorry about flashing you just isn't want you to get caught by the camera!

What mods you running?

[DarkAnt335i]

Na thanks for that :-).
I know the camera well.... it caught me once last year but luckily nothing came through. Got caught by the one down in Hawley..... had to do the driver awareness corse.

JB4 Map 5 with latest software
KW V1's
H&R ARB's
DS2500 brake pads
I have track tyres and wheels but are off the car at the moment.

What are you running?

[DarkAnt335i]

And of course V power fuel

[LS1990]

Jb4 map 1 with intake!

Going to have to switch to map 5 and update me software! Where abouts you from? Will be interesting to do pulls minus my passenger!

[DarkAnt335i]

West Hill Dartford. You?

Im up for a a few runs.

Map 1 seems to boost at about 13.something psi for me and Map 5 about 14.8psi last time i checked. Map 5 seems to have a bit more lag though, not sure if thats just me.

There are few lushed E92s crossing dartford bridge everyday.
Spotted white E92 on private plate with performance wheels 313 on which looks superb.
Spotted another 12 reg E92 with performance wheels 313 and performance rear diffuser driven by middle age lady.
And spotted one of our forum member with blue e92 and unique rear spoiler.
Plenty of BMWs around, and each time I see one, you think, is that person on E90 forum?

[zltm089]

damn...lots of fast 335i around!

[LS1990]

I used to live in Stone/Dartford border, now near Gravesend.

Theres also a guy with a silver 06 e92, advertises his dad's business on the side of it I think.

I see a white E93, red leather, 313s Covertible on my daily commute... and become more and more jealous every day! That's my perfect colour combo! That's until we hit the dual carriage way which runs some 7 miles and then I realise 'm not so jealous anymore...guess he can only see the fumes as I drive past effortlessly? ;-)

Let's hope the one I see ISN'T on this forum given my last post on this thread lmao

I see a white E92 LCI coming off around junction 3 on the m4 most days....literally makes me feel shit about my car everytime i see it lol

AWBimmer, you come down the M4 into Reading for work?

[DarkAnt335i]

If its the same silver one, he had a shop in Northumberland Heath although i haven't seen him there for a while. Popped into his shop a few times.
Don't think he had any power mods though, just suspension and wheels.

Yeah there are a fair few nice e90/2's around here most 320d though... zzzzz

I've seen about 4 335i's around this area, not many driving them 'properly' though.... Was good to see LS1990 progressing nicely on an empty road!!!!

Hey Nav,
No I don't actually come on the M4 but based just off Jnc 11 (A33) - about 5 mins from the Madjeski stadium. I live near Camberley. If you're around sometime let's meet I've not met anyone off this forum yet so should make a start somewhere lol.

[NavG]

Yea sounds like a plan - wonder if anyone else on this forum is from around Reading.

Yeah there are quite a few I'm sure.. more towards Houslow area.. especially EvoT.. most of them are from around Hounslow I believe! You and I we gotta get down on the next meet which I've consistently managed to miss :-(

Neways, what plans for the weeknd? May be if you're around next sat / sun we could just meet up with a few locals or so... short notice but worth a pop.. :-)

[NavG]

Cant this weekend, its my girlfriends birthday and ive ignored her enough since i bought this car lol - maybe get a post started and see who is around? I dont mind even going up around Hounslow - i need to get a remap done by Jason at some point....group buy!? :P

Haha tell me about it! I also need a remap and I can't think of a better weekend than next weekend for that, since my gf is off on holiday with her girlyfriends................Can't help think that stemmed from me and my fascination with the new found love (questions is for how long!?) ;-)

I'm up for a group buy - I'll call Jason now and get an idea for his availability.. when would you be available?

Muhaha, you're the only car that I've had keep up and pull on me in and around our area. All within speed limits and on private roads of course

Currently uploading newest firmware to Jb4 muhahah! Going to try Map 5 again, I didnt like last as I found it lagged also and was hardly consistent.

Will also have to ditch the nasty BP fuel I usually get and make the trip to a Shell garage.

[DarkAnt335i]

Yep defiantly worth making a trip for V power.

Initially as we pulled around the corner you got away, but i think it was due to the lag.... maybe.... once i was up into second and above 2700rpm i was pulling you in

Do you drive with DSC off?

Im still in 2 minds on whether the DCI's add/maintain any power, i might have to buy them and try it out. Do you get a lot more induction noise from the turbo's?

Other than bikes i'm yet to find something round here which can run with the 335i. Had a few runs Cayman's and a 996 which were better but in a straight line they are still relatively slow. But usually you get the usual Astra VXR, Focus ST etc which within 3 seconds appear to be driving backwards.

I agree the last 2 software updates for Map 5 were rubbish, you could sometimes feel it boost hunting, at least i thought i could. This one is a lot smoother and noticeably makes more power but the lag is still the. I actually find it a lot smoother with the JB4 off but obviously feels very sluggish. The original BMW tune is super smooth throughout the whole range, they did a great job hiding the turbo feel. As soon as you turn the JB4 back on it feels like a turbo car again.

I posted a dyno run just before the last update on the JB4, somewhere on the forum. The power/torque curve was actually surprisingly similar to MAP 1, very smooth and consistent, it just made a bit more power, something like 12bhp and 20ft/lbs i think.

[DarkAnt335i]

Oh there is one Green Focus RS with 370BHP that i had a good run with from Thamesmead to Bluewater via every round about on the way.... Dead-heat even though i had a passenger and my bi-weekley shop in the boot

At the time only had the JB4 running map 1
