VS Motorsports: Project F30 335i



A month or two ago we decided to trade in our VS Motorsports Project E90 335i. We were excited for the new F30, and when Laurel BMW told us that they had a fully loaded white F30 335i we had to jump on this deal.

So enough talking and more pictures!

Our shiny (not really haha) white F30 335i!


First thing in progress was to remove the pesky auto start stop function, so that it would stay off and never come back! We used Autologic to remove this


Bye bye auto start stop function


Next project is to remove the 4x4 suspension and go with a nice set of H&R Springs (which you can order from us through our online store, or by pm)

Rear


We will update this thread with more pictures, we are slowly working on wheel setup and lowering the car!

We should have more updates today, we are hoping to have time at the shop to install the lowering springs. And Adam if you need anything for either of your cars please let us know!

We are in the process of figuring out which set of wheels we would like to put on the 335i. We have several sets of apex wheels and we went ahead and test fitted the 18x9.5 on the front to see what we were working with.

sticks out way too much

What do you think? Don't mind the wheel gap, we are putting in the springs today!

We removed the DME and working with EVOLVE to get this thing tuned! (in development, we will have more information once we have a finalized tune!)

New location for the DME, it is bolted on the intake manifold and has to come out in order to remove the DME.




We also had a chance to run our F30 335i on the dyno, we are very pleased with the numbers

Just for fun, we ran the car with ac on haha

Small little update,
as many of you recall we purchased a BMW Performance Steering wheel for our project F30. We had to purchase the sport air bag and new buttons to make the a complete steering wheel. It took about 2 weeks to get and now we are patiently waiting for the buttons to come in





But wait, this just came in today!!
