I assumed you put the 6 speed manual box in from the 1M at the same time ?tiglon wrote: ↑Mon Jan 23, 2023 10:46 pmI don't listen to the radio either... not since I got a 35is with terrible radio signal anyway!

Prefer the look of the stubby aerial so it’s gonna get switched out… i don’t even listen to the radio
Love the car though and will likely own it until it dies or I'm forced to sell (probably by the mrs). Seriously underrated car regardless of any mods - most people have never come across one and are shocked by the performance. Is it a Boxster or Elise? No but I don't think it's trying to be.
As for the "M" debate, here's a photo of the engine swap I did this week with a 1M
Did you swap the 35is air filter box for the 1M version…on other N54s the airbox is more restricted than on the 35is…that may explain the extra 2-3 BHP..
