Z3's taste yummy! (50 mph-100mph)

Totally pulled on him at the end of 2nd gear and then started to pull again in 3rd but shut it down because a speedtrap spot was coming up.

Yep..the V6....I tried to give him a "thumbs up" and be a nice guy, but he just zoomed passed me and didn't even look.

he did look pretty mad, however.

I'm sure from a dead stop he would have won, but in the higher gears i wiped the floor with him.

Up to 2 months, but quite possibly less.

The GD is closed, however.....

Maybe you can catch the next one, if there's enough interest.

Well, I keep in contact with my supplier nearly daily over Messenger and E-Mail.

Like I said originally on this GD, it will be 2-3 months, much more likely 2 months, but I'm saying 3 just to be safe...possibly even less time, as my supplier tells me.

So I ordered some time around June 1st, so they will most likely be here some time before or on August 1st, but at the VERY latest, allowing for any issues with customs, parts being misordered, etc, etc.... September 1st.

And all is well with the order....

Any specific questions I may answer?

I might be down, the usual questions tho: Does the VI make any noise? Can we get it sooner than 2 months? And can you get the valve cover for it?

Yep...I gained about 25hp and even more torque with the MEVI on and the SC over the MEVI off and the SC.

Just got back from the Dyno shop just now. I'm waiting for him to E-Mail me the data files.



BBaker025:
I can't make it any less than 2 months, sorry. Also, it makes a VERY slight sucking sound, but I hear it's a bit louder with a CAI, and the sound compliments the CAI well.

But you won't notice it unless you listen for it.

Update:

Just spoke to my supplier. I was having a hard time getting ahold of him because his Inbox was full.

Anyway, I finally got ahold of him tonight!

The parts look like they'll be here next week!

So if you ordered from me, it's time to pay the other $280.

(Except you, mrb23, because you already sent the full amount)

Send E-Mail to iansweeney@cablespeed.com to confirm payment or if you need info.

Money order is always best.

or PayPal.

But a Check is fine also...it's up to you.

And the EXACT status is this:

My supplier should have the parts in sometime next week from what he tells me. That means he will ship them to me immediately, IF he has the other 50%. (That's why I need it now).

So it should be here, if things go well and everyone pays on time, in 1.5-2 weeks tops.

Thanks!

I will need a minimum of 5 if I do another deal.

They will be $560 shipped to your door, 50% up front. 2-3 months delivery.

If you live local, that's $530 (mtrai), because I don't have to ship it to you.

I don't want to freak anyone out, but I think I should divulge any informaiton I get.

I got an E-Mail from my supplier, and all it said was

"Hi!, sos!"

Not sure what that means, and I know this guy's grasp of the English language isn't all that good.

So I replied to him with "I received no informaiton in that E-Mail, please respond with the current situation."

I'll let you all know what he replies with.

Where do you live? in the DC area? Maybe we can help each other out installing?
