First post-RIS >10 degree weather

It's been over a week since I had the RIS done and I genuinely never went past 5.5k rpm.

Finally late last week some dry roads and 11 degree weather.

F'ck me this thing pulls to the red-line better than my non-CP. Traction is so much better too - still agruably not as good as my M2, but a big improvement over my M3. Mostly, I suspect, to do with the MPSSs as my M3 came with Contis.

MPE sings at the red-line too but it has to be said, the S55 still sounds plain weird! I do miss the noise the M2 made.

The colour is beginning to pop more now the sun is getting higher but I do need to spend a weekend with the Makita to sort the paintwork as it's awful. In hind-sight, I should have complained and got them to do it but at least doing it myself I know what's been used.

A difficult colour to take a picture of:

 

Sounds like you had a fun day of driving - I’m on the cusp myself of enjoying mine (but getting used to changing up at 5.5k rpm) / it’s in for full detailing and front ppf this week / RIS next week then it’s protected / looking good and off the leash !!!

 

Recently swapped from Contis to MPSS on my M3 and noticed a HUGE difference in traction.

 

Lol, if you think that's an improvement, wait until you try MPS4S's!

 

Stop hijacking my thread for another PS4S/MPSS war.

 

Sorry...

 

Sounds like you’re having lots of fun Phil

Dont tell Dave (Jpf) about how much better the CP is versus the non CP. He’ll blow a fuse

 

Thing is, a 44 year old man shouldn't be in sport+ in the multi-story car-park just so he can hear the MPE on overrun...

 

You're joking, right? Cos I do the same & I'm well older than you!
