Interlagos Blue Jahre G80 M3 Build Thread

bravo.charlie · 12-28-2023, 08:54 AM

Currently in the middle of a flex fuel e-tune with JordanTuned.

Pump gas portion is just about complete and now have E50 in the car and waiting on a revision.

Also ordered a custom DME cover in matte CF direct from a mfg in China at $153 USD shipped

Paid for a lightly used set of MAD catted downpipes this morning courtesy of OEM3 - On the fence currently with which catback to run. My business has a team in China so I am debating trying out JTLD as I can have one of our reps overseas communicate with them and get it ordered easily. While I've found some chat about JTLD on the forums, I haven't found any feedback from anybody that has actually ordered and tried their exhausts out. I guess I'll be the guinea pig here

Love the matte carbon engine bay! Can’t wait to see this build unfold

Thanks!

Couple more here! One with the winter setup and a half assed photoshop with some VT wheels I am debating for spring!

I wasn't really in love with the Interlagos blue in the beginning but it was the only blue available for the Jahre...

Now that I've had the car for a bit I absolutory love it! Totally grown on me and a unique shade of blue IMO that isn't seen often!

That CSL grill looks so good on there. Front end is perfect (minus the plate, ha).

Appreciate it! No front plate is a bit risky here on a daily unfortunately for tickets.

I rarely run one on the C7 but that is driven maybe once a week and I also have a quick release for it and carry it in the car.

If I was pulled I would just say I forgot to clip it back on from the last track day

Yeah if you’d constantly get bugged by the cops you really have no choice.

Is that the OEM csl grille?

Looking good man! Maybe you could do the same setup I did for removable front plate(Sto N' Sho), I now have the same style lip you do.

The car came with it. Previous owner told me he bought majority of the CF direct out of China. Mod list stated its a Dry CF CS grill.

Thanks! How much lower does this hang below the lip? I'd be a bit worried about scrapping it with the H&R springs. Front lip rubs occasionally.

With the plate removed it is maybe 3/4“, with it on it is probably 1.25-1.5". It's not ideal, but I'll drive with it removed 95% of if the time. If I get pulled over I'll just tell the officer I took it off to go through the carwash and forgot to put it back on. Then it only takes literally 10 seconds to clip it in place 👍🏻

Small update!

MAD downpipes are here, hoping to install next week! Sidenote, this M3 makes winter a bit more bearable - Absolute blast in the snow

bravo.charlie · 01-16-2024, 02:51 PM

Quick install today. Picked up this module from kos137 out of South Korea. Shipping was extremely quick, paid on Friday, received today (Tuesday) via EMS. Super easy install, there are a couple vids online. User some industrial velcro to secure it under the shifter. Device works perfectly!

Hit M1 or M2 and the cluster goes into sport mode.
Hit them again and it returns to road mode.

Update:

MAD Downpipes went on a couple weeks ago. The rasp was unbearable in combination with the terrible midpipe delete the previous owner did. I immediately ordered a bunch of exhaust bits from Vibrant performance and had this dual 2.75" to single 3.5" built by a good friend over the weekend.

Verdict: I can't recommend a single midpipe setup enough! The rasp is completely gone and the engine tone completely changed for the better by a long shot! SO happy with the end result and retaining the OEM axleback.

Flexfuel tune is also complete! Will try to get on a dyno ASAP to see what it puts down and also need to get some summer wheels on order next!
