    Soooo... Two questions.
    1. Where can I get T brake fittings?
    2. The braces that go from the shock towers to the sides. Can those be deleted? Or is that a bad idea?

        pretty sure bmw sells them, don't delete braces, that's a terrible idea

          Braces are for chassis rigidity on the vert and is an upgrade for non verts

                Has anyone done a brake booster delete? What do you think of it?

                  Massive brakes make them but I have not heard of any feedback on it. You might want to keep that with a powerful engine. You do want to stop in time right.

                      I chipped te paint a bit on the shock tower to check but there's no sign of lapisblau anywhere. The shock tower doesn't seem to replaced either and i dont see why anyone would go through the trouble of replacing the shock tower. The car came with some receipts that i haven't looked through yet so that may answer my questions.

                        Hahaha. I agree. You're gonna need a lot of muscle to stop or get a good cushioned steering wheel for white knuckles... maybe airbag too.

                            you're supposed to move the brake pivot point up to get more leverage if you do a booster delete. I've driven a car without a booster.. it's different and kind of scary at first but you get used to it. Brake pedal feels like you're pushing against a brick wall.

                                My idle is still low but i checked everything and it all seems to be fine. Just gonna leave it, doesn't seem like it's causing a problem or that the car wants to die so o well. Put m50 injectors in it too.
