Scott Trumpy, 2006 M3

[scotty737]

My name is Scott Trumpy. I am an accounting major from Chestertown, MD. The current car is an 06 M3. The current mods include Supersprint V1 headers with high flow cats, a Supersprint race muffler, a TTFS ecu tune, TC Kline S/A Coilovers, and Ground Control F/R sway bars. Looking forward to doing more HPDE days and trying to autocross.

Great looking car! Is it at school? I swear I saw it around town recently, unless BMW happened to make more than one if them in some kind of crazy money making scheme.
Welcome, and bring that beast down to Verona on Sunday.

Mmm, pretty color. How many miles on yours?

We have/have had a few of these in MM and they are fantastic. Great to hear you are already doing some HPDE, hope to see you at some NASA and BRR-SCCA weekends with the club!

Yes the car is at school and it has roughly 59k miles.

Yes, Interlagos Blue is the appropriate color (white also acceptable). Nice car!

I recently drove one with the SS headers and Race exhaust (and the other two (one?) pieces as well) - thing was loud.

Any further plans for it? Did you do the TTFS tune or was it done when you got the car? I'd be curious about your before/after feedback if it was done on your watch.

I have the headers, the section 1 with 200 cell cats and then the section 3 muffler. I still have the oem section 2 as there is no real benefit over the stock piece. It is very loud, borderline obnoxious.

For the future, it'll either be CSL airbox/cams or supercharged, but would rather stay N/A. Ideally, I would like to do the porsche caliper swap with yellow calipers. I would also like a CSL bootlid and the front bumper for the air inlet with the airbox. For the interior, I want to swap the Black to Cinnamon or get some Recaro Pole Positions.

The TTFS tune did occur under my ownership. The car had noticeably more power in the top end and more mid range torque. It also proved to make ~15whp more on their dyno (325whp/270wtq). I don't know if I would do it again, just due to the cost.
