When are they installing? So fast, I am envious

btw, random question. why did you get the exhaust? for the look or sound? Just thinking if thats worth 2XK haha..

the performance is decent for the acceleration so i am reasonably satisfied with the 528 at this time...but i dont have to mash the peddle a bit more.

Need to paint so probably mid next week to install.

The quad will have moderate HP and torque gain at mid rpm. So apart from appearance and sound also a performance mod. With your Power Box probably will be even better. I rather spend 1.9XK for the quad than the wrap, just my 2 cents.

FYI, Supersprint and Hamann quad are exactly the same. Just with different labels.

Sound wise Hamann/Supersprint are ok. Not too loud for me but I'm scared it might be too loud for my wife and kid.

Performance wise, there is a gain in the upper range but a slight loss in the lower range. Since I rarely go over 3K RPM, not very useful for me.

For me, it's solely for the looks. It just totally changes the rear of the car. Pretty much what the m-sport bumper will do to the front of your car.

That's why I was in a predicament. Wanted the looks but wanted none of the sound and loss of low end torque. Finally Z shop found a way.

Congrats RC. I doubt you'll have any problems with the drop and lip.

I just added a 3D replica lip for my wife's car and it's super low

So you can see it's still pretty low. Hopefully the wifey will keep it in one piece.

Your wifey's car is almost as sick as yours, Kevin.

The replica lip seems pretty good in quality. From the photos it seems thicker than the F10 3D M sport lip. We got advice from 3D it will only decrease 15mm ground clearance.

It only takes about a week for us to order the lip here in HK.

Can't complain since vice versa it takes 2 months or more for us to get goods here from the States. Looking forward to see yours soon.

a week

My M sport feels naked without a lip. I know what you mean about thick.

The sides are a bit think but it reminds me of the 3D lip for non M sports.

Heard from Z that there're 2 versions from Super Sprint. 1 with better lower torgue response and less noisy. Another one is much noisy with torque loss.

AsiaKid · 08-12-2011, 11:17 PM

Junco what did z do for your particular situation.

Rc3, with the wheels, the car looks really good that color. So waiting sample from CC then maybe not use that 20k there. But impatient so might order 3d if faster

Never heard of this. Let me ask Z in details when I go there.

That's right, very much like the SE 3D lip in terms of thickness.

You need to get your M sport front before the lip so you have to wait anyway.

Have you fixed up the rim rashes?

Kevin, just done some research and comparison. Seems like the authentic 3D is slimmer for your E93. Just for comparison sake, please don't mind.

Really? The time I asked Z they said they have one stock set available, no wait.

I got mine from WK, since I was waiting for my M kit. So didn't know how long. But should not be 2 months.

You can ask Z, TW and WK and see what the lead time is. But WK does not have Supersprint.
