Front refelctor delete and wheel studs too

Not a fan of the studs tbh

 

[MKVeeeeee]

Yea they are out of place atm but will make more sense once i get my apex wheels and extended lugs

Summers back, so parts are coming in. Just added the JB4 and ordered an RK titanium single exhuast. Hopefully it will get here in the expected 10 week timeframe

Did you feel like the car got slower with the catless DP? I installed mine and an afe full exhaust a couple of weeks ago, and can't get over the loss of all the down-low torque. I might need a JB4 and a custom map to fix it, but I'm just wondering how you felt after the install.

Yes, re-home that old piece of shit M5……..how much do you want and can you ship to WA state? ??

What sort of power does the 2.0 make on a JB4?

Not enough to justify the price. Mod threads of 2.0s are so silly. If you're gonna dump that kind cash into a 4-banger just save up and get the 3.0 from the jump.

Oh wow, seems like ~250whp and ~300wtq. Why not get a 3.0 or focus on the looks of the car??

I never noticed any change in mine

300+ whp is the norm for stage 2

I would get XHP and run stage 2 on it if you can. Also you could get bimmerlink and unlock Sport plus. I did that after I had added and Intake, JB4 E30 map, catless DP and Megan Racing race pipe and wow I can't begin to say how much the XHP woke the tranny up. The big bangs for the bucks overall, Catless DP, JB4 E30 Map (huge gain) and XHP jst really took it up a level.

 

[MKVeeeeee]

I really want the XHP, does it help the car stay on boost during shifts. Thats my biggest issue rn
