waltnut blasting at 93,000 miles made my car r un 10x better

Riceball777 · 09-02-2015, 06:48 PM

i just bought a bone stock e90 335i about a month ago with 93,000 miles. I dont believe walnut blasting was even done. The car was fine stock but after i installed the jb4 the car would sometimes misfire and the jb4 would force the car into map4(stock map) Keep in mind the coils and plugs are new. I bought the bavarian-autosport walnut blaster kit and after the walnut blasting the car drives 10x better. I can drive it as hard as i want and no more limp mode or misfiring. I was surprised the car even ran before but the intake ports were gunked up with carbon so bad it was crazy.

Do the walnut blasting!!!!!

I had mind done recently at 90k kms... Fixed the smoothness of the power delivery and also idling was improved. Most notably however, rpms now idle at 600rpm. Before having the walnut blast done, it would always stay around 800rpm.

I did mine a few weekends ago at 90k miles, then I replaced the coils, oil change, new O2s and then activated the JB4 G5!! Holy cow what a difference doing this all at once

Where did you get your walnut blasting done? I'm from Indianapolis and looking to do the same.

A few of the indy shops I called had NO CLUE what walnut blasting does for the intake. I was like "okay maybe it's a myth on the internet forums"
