Big props M3this for steppin' up and guinea pigging your Works man! Did your intake have a nice coat of oil residue from the PCV? Looking forward to the results!

good action shots, but let's get some prototype shots
Now that the ecm's been cracked open for tuning, an o2 sim/fix piggyback seems like a waste of R&D time ? let's see that intake in progress..

My contact

I spoke with people at RISS and offered my car. I have excess vehicles at my disposal and could let them have it for a few weeks. They said they had one in the shop but would call me Monday (three days ago) and let me know for certain as they might need mine. I've never received a return call.

Well props for giving up your ride, even if they don't need it, at least the development is being done by a quality, reputable shop. Really excited to see this happening.

Very cool... did they mention a timeline for the catless dp /02 sim production schedule? They seem to be on the fast track ... of course, I'm assuming all the x35 bmw work helped.

Are you driving home stock? Or with the new goodies fitted onto your car?

This looks like a fine piece and they are making catted versions. Have the catted versions thrown any CEL's?

The is a lower brace (attachment) that is on the OEM downpipe. It doesn't appear on the finished Riss products.

My concern here is having the darn thing shake, rattle and roll while on the track! Same thing with ED downpipe, no lower attachment point to secure the DP.

Cheers!
