I drove out to San Diego with a roof box attached, was slightly worse on mpg, but the Thule stayed pretty quite at higher speeds

Yea, mistake on my part.

As an aside, did you know your roofbox was used as a prop in Agents of Shield? It was the cryogenic sleep chamber lol

Yea I bust out laughing when I saw it. It was kind of spooky though, because I just bought a roofbox when I watched that episode. Most production companies do this though, me and my friends make a game of spotting items repurposed as props.

I like it, but there is a fitment issue, a grommet in the back does not line up witht the post and the valve cover, and if I put the pipe on it, the pipes separate at the top coupling??

musclesmarinara75 · 07-15-2021, 08:00 PM

Here is the pic of where the grommet goes, and slides on top of the post, I just doesn't fit damnit!... Was on hold with Turner Motorsports customer service for 38 minutes ... had to hang up very aggravated!

ChampagneQrtzPapi · 07-15-2021, 09:39 PM

Looks nice! I didn't know TMS sold a CF air box for the F10 chassis. Always been kinda bummed that the N55 F10 didn't have much aftermarket support like this (when compared to the N55 in the F22/F30).

Hope it all gets sorted out in some way!

Unspec · 07-15-2021, 10:24 PM

Roof rack installed. The gutter protectors were sold out literally everywhere and there is like a 2 month lead time, so I just made my own with 3M VHB and some ABS plastic. Not very pretty, but who's gonna know lol

Next step: Boxing time

I went camping last year and was in charge of camping supplies for pretty much the entire group. I barely fit everything in and it was stressful as hell. Decided I needed a box, since I'm definitely not going to be upgrading into a X3 or X5 any time soon lol.

There is some cosmectics to it but ..no, the inlet is much bigger, and the filter is bigger also...I was always wary about having that BMS filter sucking in that hot air sitting top the engine, we'll see what type of difference this makes... I'm sure it will sound much better as well

Ended up sliding the coupling to the left and pushing the tube over to match the hole, the pipes aren't butted up to each other in the coupling, but it fits now, just gonna check with Turner if there was a problem

Poconos. Some really fun roads up there as well, was tempted to swing by the pocono raceway and just check it out from a distance but time wasn't on my side.

Pocono Raceway is a huge area, pretty cool to see, you go down this almost residential road... and BAM, it's right there

They're having MPACT next month there. I usually go every year but last year was horrible and disorganized. Wait times were 5+ hours to get in. Some guys after waiting longer were turned around which is BS! Especially when tickets were already purchased online
