I would do the Kw Has vs Mphas. MP Has is limtied on the drop vs the KW Has.

but always depend if he wanna keeps his factory warranty or not. BMW won't cover any suspension issue with KW kit, only Mperf ones.

I dont think he cares about that at all. He fully mods his cars. He has all the nice cars too.

Yes true--- I have been using KW and other stuff for quite some time and understand the pay to play mentality.

Whats ironic is the M Perf kit is made by KW (I think this to be true) but it doesnt drop the car as much up front.

Work has been done.
I’ll let Vic55 update the thread.

Vic55 · 04-21-2024, 08:49 AM

Thanks again to Ben aka r33_RGSport for opening up on Saturday to accommodate me... the drop is what the car needed and the drive home thru the canyons was great with no issues at all. Im leaving the car in Sport for EDC and thats the best tradeoff from too much compression and not enough absorbing of the undulations.

Also thanks for the coding, exhaust, etc, and coffee LOL

Went with KW HAS.

fucking perv, stay out of the box

Vic55 · 04-22-2024, 09:28 AM

few more pics

Immediate drop numbers after we de racked it was

Front drop 1 inch or 1 1/8th
Rear drop about 8/10ths

Some settling has occurred but this feels like the sweet spot for me and the CS tuned dampers. I did the drop Saturday, drove it about 50 miles and then went out and had beers (no driving) and Sunday when I drove it I forgot I had it lowered LOL and didnt even really realize it was dropped. KW is fine for the CS IMHO.

Looks great. What coding?

Hmmm lets see:

Amber lights off
Added red to ambient lighting
Removed chimes and ID8 usage warnings
Some window roll up mod (not sure)

Ben aka RG Sport r33_RGSport can probably chime in better.
