Just thought i'd share a few pics of my new BTB 6 Branch which i bought from Sal (M5Pilot). Just like to say a big thanks to Sal, a pleasure doing business with him and would definitly recommend A+++
Got the 6 Branch off Sal Tuesday evening, didn't manage to fit it until yesterday. Everything went to plan, finally took it out Saturday evening and wow what a noise, hard to explain but it sounds awesome, a complete change throughout the rev range. Pulls a lot harderA lot deeper on idle.
My advice to you fellow zoners is to get one. u wont regret it.
Here are a few pics of the btb 6 branch now and a few pics of my 325i Sport M-Tech 1

That engine bay is a bit clean mate. :bling: Must get mine done!!!!

One thing though, ditch the K&N! especially now you can flow more gasses with the manifold, get a bigger filter. The K&N one is way too small and restrictive.

Glad your happy with the service mate!

The manifold has yet again provne itself to be brilliant.

Defo agree with the bigger airfilter, trying to source something thats a direct fit which is alot bigger.

That looks similar to mine I think, but I guess they all look similar. Except the one that I see every now and then and I think Karan has, it's great. Mine has to fit around the steering coupling bit because I have the E36 rack. And yours is shinier (spelling?) :D .

Might has well bite the bullet and go MAF now because you know you will eventually!! :twisted:

I'm going to go MAF, sick to death of pissing about with AFM and all the bits around it. :evil:

That is one clean car dude!

MAF is a good way to go. Had a breif disussion with Karan about Mega Squirt but as with MBE fitted to the C2, you wil get a very different feel to a MAF conversion.
