      @@jake_spence Diego, you should. I did just that, thanks mainly to Jake's video. Hey Jake, would you consider making a video about how to best to solve for traction with these cars. They are getting more popular now and with 6-700hp being easily attainable these days, how do we keep the power down effectively? That's my next headache right after getting my single turbo conversion done. On my 335i I could just run wider tires but the options are limited on the e8x chasis

    it might be running bad sometimes because you have no Lamda Sensors connected. also in my e90 theres something called NOX-Sensor for emissions (i think the 135i is kinda around the model year of my e90) back than many cars had that nox sensor with an aditional NOX-catalyst for emissions and also to improve fuel consumption. if this is missing that may lead to the engine running bad. im no expert pls dont roast me if im worng just my backjard-mechanics thoughts :) greetings form germany
