Install AR Downpipes. OEM Downpipes have White Deposits...

GAINZ · 06-12-2011, 05:08 PM

I was at a local shop and we took out the OEM downpipes to install my new AR Catless downpipes.

After taking off the OEM's the tech said that they had the whitest deposits of any OEM 335i downpipes he's ever seen. He's done many many installs. All of my engine mods are listed in my signature. What do I do? Am I running extremely lean? Am I going to have problems?

HALP!!

that's normal, that's how my OEM dp looked like too.

Yeah I heard 335s are weird. I hope so. I'm also at 51k miles..enough time for deposits I guess. What is the deposit exactly?

Normal. Ash from fuel additives, etc.
