I am almost speechless. After THE BEST customer service I have ever recieved,
I have finally gotten the car to run properly (lose connection on the installers
part). The car is near scary fast. In first gear from a standstill with
SMG, you can light the tires up without going full throttle. After you reach
4K rpm, you can really feel the power. First and second gear vanish in what
seem like instants. I haven't even taken it up to red-line for my neck and
tires sake. With 4.10's I can't imagine what it would feel like. If you can't
afford a supercharger just yet, I recommend calling Sean at D/A for an upgrade
you will never regret or wonder "why did I buy this?"
I spoke with Sean at D/A and he definately knows what he
is talking about when it comes to cars, and M-cars since that is why we are
on this forum.
Couple of reasons i highly recommend D/A
- Customer Service
- Honesty
- Excellent products
Sean is the man! Couldn't say it enough. Always a pleasure talking to him
on the phone as well as doing business.
Will be back for 4.10's soon...
if your looking for software upgrade i would say go with D/A software..
i just got mine and it was Grrrrreat... i had the K&N 63 and D/
A street software.. the car seem alot faster than before.. it sound amazing
too...the throttle is alot smoother... dont take my word for it search
the forum..i was a little skeptical at first about software..i alway though
how is a dme flash going make the car run better but now i believe it...talk
to Sean at D/A if you have any question...great customer service too.
After I installed my CSL header last week (for those who didn't read the org.
post -part1-, the link is below), I felt the car was pulling a tad stronger
and the sound was amazing, today, I got my ECU back from D/A (sent it overnight
1 day ago). I got the RACE software from D/A and let me tell you it is crazy,
the throttle feels soo much better and the power is very smooth throughout
the powerband. I want to thank everybody for telling me to get the software
from D/A .
The customer service from SEAN is also very good - I still like the software
better but still the attention was amazing! he kept me updated throughout the
receiving and programming and shipping of the ECU, even now, when i just got
back from a ride.
Big Thumbs up for D/A
Anyway, thanks a lot to Sean for his very friendly customer service . The
guy is very patient and willing to help with any questions you may have. He's
not like car sales man type who would push you to buy everything so don't get
afraid. If any of you are thinking of modding your car whether it's gonna be
a hardcore one or a minor tuning, give him a buzz and listen what he have to
say
Discovery Automotive Street Software:impressions
Nicely done! drivebility
is just as good if not better than stock.around town driving is smooth
and responsive. car definitely feels faster and transmission of power is
smooth throughout all rpm ranges. 1st and 2nd gear shifts are less jerky,
shifts points are smoother (no more need for CDV delete )
, and the car really wakes up @ around 4K to redline..In addition, DA customer
support was excellent. Still waiting for the 60-70 mile adaptation so the
car should drive even better. Nice
I just wanted to start a thread and show off my next mod for my M. I also
wanted to reiterate the plain and simple fact (all of us on this forum already
know) that Sean @ D/A is a great guy, and a freaking awesome guy to do business
with. D/A is without a doubt extremely fortunate to have him representing them.
As busy as he continuously is, he always makes sure to keep constant communication
with the customer. I like how whenever we talk car parts it always leads into
shooting off about random other stuff for a while there after. I don't see
Sean as just another vendor, but more like a friend that hooks me up with goodies
for my M. Awesome to do business with you Sean! I'm sure you already know that
you'll be shipping out more stuff my way sooner rather than later. Ha!
Performance wise i don't know which is better. I have the D/A software
and i have been so happy with it. At first i was running 93 octane and it was
acting horrible, I called them up to return it, and they truely cared about
my problem and worked with me to fix the problem. It turns out my gas place
was cheatin me and not truely giving 93 octane. Went to another station, and
its running like a champ. Haha put in some 100 octane and it was almost a different
car. Excellent service. I run a 13.5 on the 1/4 mile.
I want to start off by saying thank you to Sean @ D/A for great costumer service
and great prices. Also for his help with all my annoying, dumb questions. Thanks
a lot man
After getting my car back from lucent, the only word I could use to describe
my car is INSANE! The
power is felt as soon as you step on the gas. I could literally see the
rpm shot up so fast all the way to 8200 ,
it's unbelievable. And the car sounds like a race car. It's so loud but
not annoying at all. Nice sound in mid to high rpm. I get heads turning
when I drive down the street. I love it. I just need to watch out for the
damn cops now.
I'm in love
with this set-up. I also switched my exhaust from eisenamnn race to SS
race to complete the SS theme. BIG difference. SS gave the car a louder,
deeper, race car sound to it. (Eisenmann currently up for sale)
I want to give a BIG thanks to Simon & Tom @ Lucent Motors for the
great install. Of course they do professional work and take good care
of their costumer.
If anyone is thinking about an exhaust set-up go with this. SS v2 headers,
SS mid-pipes (no cats, no res.) SS race exhaust. You will fall in love
with it. Just give Sean @ D/A a call and he will take good care of
you. And if your in the LA area stop by at lucent for installion, you
won't be disappointed.
Wow guys, I think Sean is the Nicest Sponsor on here that I know of.
Man I look forward in doing business with you Sean.
You got to hook me up with a Step Header, Software, Intake package Soon,
Well be in touch!
Great Guy
OMG D/A Street Software Rocks!
Perf. Mods: K&N CAI 63 w/ Streamline Cone Filter. (NO MAF SCREEN) and
AA Muffler
I just added the D/A (discovery-automotive.com) street software
and I must say it does rock. \m/
Definately can feel a difference on my butt dyno. At first I only had
the K&N
cone filter in there but once I dropped in the Streamline cone filter the
difference was even greater.
Sean is pleasant to work with and has excellent turn around time.
For those of you looking for software/chip upgrade, get this!
Let me first start of with Sean ... Great guy and super customer support !!
The D/A Race software with my headers ... WOWOWOW I F**King love it !!
The car feels so much better and it pulls better and now till 8200 RPMS !!
Great software u guys should get it ASAP. Plus no more SES !
New Install: Kreis Sieg Exhaust + more!
So I took the plunge and put some upgrades on my M3. Just got my car back
from Lucent Motor after installation of these parts:
14" Yellow Brembo Front Calipers (Lucent)
AFE Mag Cold Air Intake (Bimmer Performance Store)
Ground Control Coilovers and CamberPlates (Discovery Automotive)
CSL Headers (Discovery Automotive)
SS Race Cats (Discovery Automotive)
Kreis Sieg F1 Valvetronic Exhuast (Discovery Automotive)
D/A E46 Race Software (Discovery Automotive)
I have to say that I am extremely pleased with the results of these mods. Granted
I have only driven the car for a couple hours after the install but so far
my grin is from ear to ear.
The exhaust is unbelievable. The CSL headers and SS race cats really make this
exhaust shine. In closed mode I would say it is quieter then a SS Race exhuast,
but deeper. It is enough to know something outrageous is working. When you
put it in open mode, watch out!! The thing is truely amazing, the flood gates
open and all hell breaks lose.
Sean from Discovery Automotive hooked me up with the majority of the parts
and the great Software. I am so far extremely impressed with the results on
the car. He really took the time to see this project through. I would highly
reccommend going to Sean at Discovery Automotive for your parts and software
needs
