Default 2024 SQ8 Build Begins…

I got sick of waiting for an RSQ8 to be released from customs. Saw this Ascari Blue SQ8 with the 23” wheels and was sold.

It is currently getting these mods installed at Eurowise:
Lowering Links
Wheels Spacers
Valvetronic Catback exhaust
JB4 piggy back module

As Soon as someone cracks this ECU will get down pipes and a proper tune.

The subwoofer will probably be upgraded as well.

Debating on adding some carbon fiber bits but the car and that color look so damn good as is….

, she looks great as is , painting out the exhaust tips black and deleing the rear reflectors with body color vinyl makes a big difference as well

I'd skip the catback and do high flow cats. The cats are what controls most of the sound level and quality on these cars

I have an SQ8 Acari Blue on order. Color looks great! Did you get the gray or black interior and how do you like the interior color with it? I went with black.

High Flow cats would need to be installed in a set of aftermarket downpipes though, correct?

yes downpipes = cats or cat bypass. Stock are like 1000cell cats, aftermarket 100 or 200cell , or cat bypass

Got the Gray. Dig it a lot. Had BMW fest in my old E46 M3. This is so much better.
