Yeah, DM's Don't stop.

As for me. I need to get just enough of a cage built to get back into tandem at south east drift events. I need more tandem practice with Sapp.

just a thought, but have you talked to Thomas over at AutoFab. He might no some tricks for you. Afterall he does run a BMW performance shop....just a thought, but he is super friendly and helpful give him a shout.

Did Peter up at RIP get with you Andy? Scott was saying that he was gonna hook you two up since Peter is suppose to be a really good with Merc's and BMW's.

I can give Thomas a shout. I haven't met Peter yet. Scott was saying he thought it was a wiring problem with the MAF.

Standalone seems to be the solution. But I would be looking at $5000-$5500 just for the damn ECU... and that will never happen.

I don't know what I'm doing. I'm still really upset, and I'm not going to make any decisions until I've had some time to calm down. I went out there to have fun... and the car got in the way, and I had zero fun. In fact... I can't remember when the last time was that I was that pissed off. I just know I'm not dumping any more money into the car. So if I have to do that to fix it... then it I'm probably done with it.

i'd hate to see you drop the bmw but i think it would be crazy to see you drift a more powerful car.

From what I've read... MoTec is the only one that will control Vanos.

I'm not saying I'm giving up... but I'm really fucking furious. I probably just need time to cool off. I'm very serious about blowing any more money on the car though.
