Andrew,
Would you have the chance to weigh the new wheels and compare them to the OEM. No one has been able to tell me an accurate weight difference between the two. All I hear is that it is much lighter

Anyway great build, look forward to hearing your reviews on it.

Sure bud

I have a rear wheel which I had to replace as an asshole turned into me as I was passing him. Did some minor scuff and graze marks on the left rear rim only (thankfully)

His insurance paid for new wheel so I will weigh OEM rear and BBS rear and take pictures for you next week when I'm back in the shop

All my OEM parts from new E90 M3 and the porsche re cluttering up the guys store room as they have been modded at the same time

Storage fees coming unless I manage to sell some parts

Do a detailed write-up of the installation so I can decide whether to go ahead with it

I looked at Techart however they seemed more focused on looking pretty than making big HP.

Evoms is a focused company and has an excellent rep for building reliable HP.

I liked the different power options and the parts supplied each giving their own gains made sense building up to a certain point. I started with a 670 kit and then went all the way with upgraded turbos etc

I am also Woking with a local shop which uses evoms regularly and I've seen another gt2 which was unbelievable. Not mention Nate knows Ian from the M3 forums and also pushed me their way. I believe I've officially made Nate branch into P Car build experts. Certainly Jesal and I each learned a thing or two from RSS and EVOMS

I'm sure other shops are good but evokes sold me 100%

Ian at evoms has been unbelievable with support and advice. I would highly recommend using then for a power upgrade of any size
