Nice. Planning on adding side skirts? I think it would look even better.

They aren't big, yes they are visible and go really well with the M6. I definitely would not want them off my car.

I would definitely get the sideskirts having the front lip. Having just the front lip and rear diffuser makes the car look as if there is a gap in the middle. The skirts would restore the "flow" from rear to front if that makes any sense.

Really considered getting side skirts from 3D design

A bit bigger than Vorsteiner, and a bit less pricey

Worst case scenario if you don't like the side skits I can provide my shipping address and you can ship them to me. I exclusively handle "charity case side skirts" for victims of 6post.com.

I just move over from a n55 640i to a M6 GC so really need you 2 of the most senior to help.

I have been trying to do a log but got all the funny numbers from the logging.

Rpm went from 200+ to 500+ instead of 1000 to 8000.

I don't have afr to look at in the log & the only thing readable in the log was only Target boost n actual boost nothing else. Is this normal with jb3? Or am I missing something?

Can spare a helping hand? Thanks so much.

I'm running +3psi because I have the latest firmware, +3psi on the new one = +2.5psi on the old one. Dyno it on dynojet if possible, make sure your fuel is 93 octane or higher with those settings.

Yes we have 98 Ron gas all over singapore, usually I will add a bottle of +6 Ron to the tank for every pump. I think m6beast was running +4 psi with race gas or even +5 psi.

I realise u mention dp didn't really make much power? Did u try it without the tune? Any hp gain? Other website like ams state dp gain eg 60+hp.

I'm very toward power gain, yr experience which other mod I need to increase more?

The car runs the best on the new firmware and set to 2.75. Me and my buddy with an F10 M5 both agree the cars run better set to 2.75 as opposed to 3.0. It's more consistent with the stock A/F ratio's
