You read my mind, I was just thinking the same thing.
I did. It was pure inspirational!!

How'd it go, Jake?
Couldn't get to it. I may try again tomorrow.

I did it!
I had to do the "south" option to get clean contact substrate. The car seems to just drive and accelerate smoother.
I also went and had a muffler shop check out my exhaust and found that the aftermarket cat that was on it was completely gutted. Had a new unit installed and I'm very happy with the results. I seem to have lost a bit of "punch" but she sure drives NICE!!

Did mine! Wow!!
This is the second one I have done but the results were outstanding this time! (I think there was more going on with the last car) I had to go south with mine so it was a little more involved but not much. The power band is now super clean! No more hiccups, stalls, hesitations or dead spots during acceleration at WOT or otherwise. Very nice.
If you haven't done this you are missing out.

I need to check / do this, and clean the ICV. But both seem intimidating to me...

Same here. I've had the DIY bookmarked since I had my e30 (over 2 years ago now) and I just haven't coughed up to cojones to do it... :gulp:
