Starting at 1030am, but there are 3 cars getting before and after dynos, so it'll take a while most likely. Not sure what time everything will be done.

Yeah, it's close to the Torrance area off PCH.

Nice...I'm pretty sure they have 2 dyno machines, so it'll be worth it Frank. I know your car is a beast, so I want to see your numbers too! See you tomorrow.

dammit, I hope you guys will be there late!

I'm bringing in the M3 to the dealer tomorrow for it's first (1200 mile) service and then I have to go to work. So most likely, I'll be driving a loaner 325i if I make it (the 325i is such a POS). I will definitely try to come.

LOL...I think I'm gonna be there until fairly late. Lots of stuff to do. Oh, and I just might put on my new badges. Here's a little teaser pic.

Funny, cuz I might not install the big one. The small ones will replace the "sport" on the side, but we'll see. I'll decide later on. The big one may go in the middle of the bottom grille of my front bumper (when I get it) or in the grille portion of the rear valance (when I get it).

Renntech has a filter?...LOL. I thought all that came in the kit was the belt and the pulleys (and emblems). Didn't see it at all. products were shipped directly to the shop where flip and the peeps at the shop put it in. Had to give up my car a couple days and it's still not done (goin' back on Friday).

So, what is the update. I tried to make it over to you, but you were not answering your phone. No biggie, but I needs me an update.

Sheez, you didn't mention this kit over the phone....

Lol, no guys - whatever came in the box was in the box. I don't recall ever seeing a new air filter (but Drex' already has a K&N - which is included in a Kleemann kit).
