Why is winter the BEST time to tune em?? When do you do the majority of driving. Assuming Spring, summer and fall?? Actually the best tune I ever got was at the track (even better than a dyno with its various and sundry "variables" )

^ Ignore the idiot troll.
Swell 16V Cosworths you've piloted. Bought a new '87 Z-51 instead. Wasn't the last foolhardy decision I made.

I would say it's better to tune in the summer when it's hot. The hotter the temperature, the leaner your air/fuel ratios would be. If you tune in the winter, you would have to make your AFRs super rich to take into consideration the change in AFR's when the weather warms up. Makes sense to me. I generally aim for highest 12.0 and below on the hottest days. I run max 12.5 w/ the addition of a water/meth kit. In the summer if I tune for 12.0, I generally get about 11.3-11.5 in the winter. There's always a higher risk of detonation in the summer when it's hot. Running leaner in the winter isn't a big deal because the amb. temp. is so cold, therefore you really need to check your AFR's in hot weather.

the brabus shift knob is in the mods to come section. I am still looking for one. When I had my C36 years ago they were always some on ebay and such, now they seem to be impossible to find.

Congrats on the new 32. I had to look twice at your name. At first glance, I thought it said AMGSC and was wondering why he would be buying a C32. Absolutely love your C36.

SL55 Y splitter going on tonight, CF trunk lip going on tomorrow when its warmer, all badges drying at the moment, and all problematic relays replaced. Need tires so bad I cant even drive it. Dont know if I want to buy tires for the stock rims or not... plus if I did I need to put the H&Rs in first on #1s and #3s to see how much room I got there.
