Stage 3? That's pretty good right?

Yeah, stage 3. Torque seems a little low I think. It was 85+ degrees so that might be why, not sure though.

Received my 55mm flat center caps for my TD 1.2 wheels.

Thanks. Cant wait to get them on, just trying to decide if I should go 50 or 45 series tires this time.

Careful on the flat ones.. I lost my two front ones because they were flat on my Rota Grids

My first set of used rotas's centercaps came off from the carwash pressure washer sprayer. They always were kinda loose. But these caps on the TD wheels feel snug. Hopefully they stay put.

Do you know the size of the rota cap by any chance?

Drove a full load to the fraternity house for move in day. I may look lowered on the outside lol.

And yes.. That is a turbo siting next to me- blown turbo=pen holder

I'm not sure. I havent measured to order new ones yes. My rear ones are still on but the front ones came off because i'm guessing that hub bolt is a little longer than the rear.

What suspension you on?

 

[PhoenixM3]

I hit the rev limiter in 2nd gear for the first time, then proceeded to hit 130MPH. That's what I did.

[MENTION=96]stuntdoogie[/MENTION] I'm on stock suspension.

I don't think the intercooler has much to do with the coolant temperature, this is a reflection of the stock radiator limitations. I think 227* is not that bad, but it is higher than I have seen it in recent memory, but the drive was very hmm "spirited".

Turbo BMW's normal operating temps are around 220-230* ish

Actually, it's been shown that the CAT/ECT are closely linked. It makes sense considering the fact that the heat extracted from the FMIC basically goes straight into the radiator.

I think something to do with quick heat-up and/or fuel economy. Super easy to remove, takes like 5 mins even with fat hands. I did scrape up my middle finger a bit

No, the flaps are designed to improve cooling while stopped with no frontal air flow. Without those flaps the negative pressure created by the fan cannot be distributed to the area that is not directly in front of the fan. Removing them does not improve cooling efficiency at speed and reduces cooling efficiency while stopped.

On-topic though, I took mine off the ground on the east coast and put it back down in the ground in the west coast-
