Helix FMIC Presale/Group Buy
how about we DON'T so they'll start building them already. We've already hit the magic number of 20.

Good luck with that thought!!!!! It won't make any difference if we have 20 or 120, it still won't be a done deal until the BMW side of the buy has more time to do their thing. Helix has the final say in the matter and from a business perspective you can believe the more they sell the better. Sure I want the ups man to ring my door bell tomorrow and hand me the IC (BIG DREAM) or at least before MOTD (may be a little more realistic), but if not then I will just have another mod to look forward to when I return form the Dragon.

Everyone:
We would like to close the group buy by the end of the 21st of this month. If you're on the fence about getting one, now is the time to join. You can put aside part of your tax return and get this as a nice present for yourself
Long trip? I pass by plymouth meeting on my way to work every day. Feel free to stop by and check out our shop!

...I may need an FMIH - front mounted intake heater
Really -
I'm in
I'm calling in 10 minutes with my deposit.
I don't believe anyone one has asked about having Helix install this at the shop, so I was wondering what that would cost?
Thanks!
Now the waiting begins... ,but I'll try to keep my COOL!
(pardon the pun)

Pipes
Same pipes, sitting in the basement. My friend says the IC is the only mod of this sort (pipes, JCW cylinder air filter, etc) he has done that made a noticable power difference...Heat kills power and this takes the heat away so the engine can make the max. For WOT this is it

The JCW intake can be seen here:

The way I see it is, if I am taking all of that apart to put in the IC, I might as well change out the pipes and get rid of the Turbo outlet muffler and the sound-maker on the IC outlet. The NM parts seemed nice as they are hard pipes which should not expand underpressure and that should (so I have read) make the turbo more responsive.
OBTY - if you don't have a more open cat-back exhaust, one of those will help too (I like my Invidia, Borla is nice too)
Wait a minute - ClevelandRay - I just check the list to see if you are on it for an IC and didn't see you listed...Are you planning to get one? These other things are nice add-ons, but the real power comes from IC that this group buy is for. Better hurry
Is there another discount if we hit 30?
I know -
Getting to be the end of the month

There's really only 27, rigt now. It looks like two haven't put their deposit down yet. Still, it's over twenty!
Now I gotta think of other things I can do/add, when it's apart for installing the big intercooler!
