...And this is why I love my XI (if you don't like dirty BMW's don't look)

I was destroying chunks of snow/ice on the road with my lip. Any more snow than this and it would be bad news. I have to raise it for winter

the lip isn't much lower than without it. Either way the car is far too low if i'm plowing only 2" of snow.

Kev · 11-24-2008, 11:40 AM

That looks like loads of fun. You gotta raise your car up a bit or else your bumper won't last through winter.

AV9 · 11-24-2008, 12:05 PM

that's wut it's made for! nice

dedutch · 11-24-2008, 12:25 PM

haha well done. I'll be taking mine up for the inagural trip to the mountains this week, the dirt and salt from the roads should do wonders for my Monaco blue...

No need to adjust the boost.. the latest V3 maps have cold weather compensation built right in!

actually I can attest to that......30 degree weather even w/ a race gas map set to 100% and I only saw 15.3psi. Was shooting for 17psi but the map wouldnt allow it. Car was a bullet though.

BerkTechnology · 11-24-2008, 02:03 PM

Looks like fun!

Deda · 11-24-2008, 03:23 PM

xi is so cool!
