Finally!! SSTT + BMS

GGreek5 · 05-31-2008, 08:16 AM

So, I finally got my beautiful Montego Blue e90 335i. I'm in love. I forgot how unbelievable BMW's are. Holy shit. This thing is great. I started doing some of the visual mods. I'll post some pics later today. I'm trying to go easy on the gas peddle, but its not working.

I decided to install the Bms filter yesterday. Pretty simple install. Then, I figured, since I have the old intake box off, it would be a good idea to install the SSTT. I still have less than 500 miles on the clock.
Installed the sstt and filter. WOW. This thing screws. Just the sound of the intake, hearing the turbos spool, is worth the money.
On my way to work this morning, I opened it up a bit from a dig. I left the tc on, and at the top of first gear, the traction control light came on!!!

Its a new animal now. Pulls HARD through the gears. Next is the rims and tires. They are sitting in my house, but for some reason, I dont even care to put them on yet. I love this car. I know every day it will continue to amaze me like my old Bmw's did.
Pics soon to come.

Been thinking about getting this for a while now. Do you think the filter makes that much of a difference? To hear those turbos spool sounds like it is worth it!

My last car was an e36 M3 as well. I picked up the 335i before I shipped the M3 away. After a few days breaking in the 335i, it was really difficult to drive the M3. Even with some mods to the engine and driveline, the M3 felt extremely lethargic and even a little numb.

Great trade-up. I keep talking myself out of an SSTT for some reason - I doubt it'll last long.

well its about damn time you got your car. And I agree the SSTT does wonders for this thing. The change from the SRT Jeep to the BMW is huge looking out and seeing a nice interior

great stuff.

Oh yeah I didn't even come close the to mythical 1200 miles break in thing either.

HAHa. I love it. I like it more than the Jeep. Except for the limp mode in my previous thread. lol
