if you want to let me "look after it" for awhile i could use a daily.

but seriously never gonna give you up never gonna let you down never gonna run around and hurt you. or something.

you could do a Dodge Diplomat V8 swap.

aww man don't give up, please. you are my hero. i need andy drifting dirty black in my life. So does Callie.

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.

i think megasquirt is pretty cheap

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

what does an exhaust system have to do with your ecu?


on the serious andy if you need any help with that stuff theres a few super legit bmw shops up here that we have good relations with and we'd be glad to extend our deals to you

Drifting the m3 would not be the same ever again without you there dude . Please don't give up! Call thomas maybe he can shed some light!!

Damn Andy I hate to see you like this.

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.
