Like I don't think you guys understand. My wife doesn't give a shit about anything car related at all. So for this to still be on her mind and her still be talking about it 4 hours later, is huge. I mean, I would never buy one, but she didn't even shoot down the idea when I told her I used one was still $55k.

"But it looks so nice!"
Doesn't even sound like agreement. Sounds like encouragement, better start looking at BMW forums and forgetting what signaling means.

Same thing happened to me when my brother got an m3 comp white on white with all the options.

I had the cooliest car, then he did. Stole my honor and glory. At least I’m a virgin, I heard that’s cool.

After conversing with my family @Acadia18, it seems that it is time to build tf outta your car. Don’t sell it, just be better.

If I ever go to the track I’m crashing my car. There’s no way I could let someone pass me it’s just an ego thing.

I think I'm going to let @dtfd talk me into us DIY'ing a carbon cleaning. It can't be worse than a solo turbo install 🤣

Any tips for someone who knows nothing about cars @jay745? Can the manifold be pried off with a 2x4? Is there a manifold service position?

That's what jay was asking for the duct tape for

It's pretty straight forward. If you don't have a walnut blaster you'll be picking for a few hours but it's still straight forward. Buy a stubby 19mm wrench for the fuel lines.

Yeah, getting a media blaster. Not a fan of picking for a few hours. Also is an excuse to buy a better compressor than the one I found on the side of the road 🤣
