Even at 12.5 to a 12.8 is a huge difference on the track. Your also talking worse case ZL1 vs absolute best case GXP. Try some winding mountain roads and compare the two stock vs. stock :)

I added a little over half the Slip Lock tube. When I squeezed it almost all shot out too quickly. It's installed and I've had zero chatter. So far it's great! I was worried the BMR Pro bushings...

Gotcha. Yes I was speaking of the inserts. They only take 60 minutes or so to install. Not sure if there's a huge benefit in insert vs. while bushing? Inserts do a darn good job at quelling movement.

Craddle bushings are pretty cheap and easy to install. $136 at BMR on sale;) Not sure you can get springs for that price. Drop does look nice.

I will second this one. EB3 is a horrible shop! They did a horrible job on one of our G8's to the point it was almost fubared.

Frost is a fantastic tuner!

Thanks a bunch guys! Now I need to figure out how to get the driver side diff bushing out. The others were fairly easy. I may have to cut it out :(

That's what I was trying to extract :) It's easy to just put it in first and then top with the SVG. I didn't want to have to drain some of the SVG out to make room for the slip lock.

Amsoil in 3.27 diff?

I just recently got a 3.27 diff for my G8. For those of you who have this diff and have switched to the Amsoil Sever Gear 75-90 fluid, did you have to add Amsoils Slip Lock friction modifier?

Don't forget that BMW tends to be extremely conservative with their numbers. I saw the tech video's online when the M5 Engineers went over every aspect of the cars design. It will be a beast!

You can always just rent a lift at the DIY in Sterling VA. It's a little bit of a hike, but It shouldn't take more than 2-3 hours on the install.

You don't have to worry about emissions. All VA does now is hook up to your OBD II sensor. Easily defeated with a tune.

They really messed up the tune on one of our G8's. Actually they didn't tune the car themselves. They sent it to a shop in Maryland to have it tuned.
