I bought it one month old from a Norwegian supplier, it has been used on a 2006 Bmw 630ia. So that they just deliver for the E90 can't be thrue. Other than the software, what can be the difference?
Its odd they don't list the ess kit for an si 3.0,but use a kit on a similar engines 5series.....whrn i asked years ago for my2005 3.0i,was told the kit couldn't be used on an si,so must be some changes in the kit. Nice one

It`s less space for the supercharger when installed on a Si, the air intake has very limited space compared to a Z4 with M54 or a 5 series E60. My Z4 was the first supercharger mounted to a N52 ESS installed. I think they the limited space for the airfilter can be a reason for them not listing the kit yet :(

So used the weekend very well, and wet sanded the whole car. Hood got 1500 grind, then 3000. Rest of the body just 3000, wanted to have som clear to play with later:D

Will soon do a photo session, so no finishing pics before then:(

Stop fiddling and drive the thing :D

Why are you sanding it down? How bad was the paint?
