I don't have this mod passion and never will. I don't understand it and I almost hate it. As for the improvement you must be right because you are so convinced. I am not. Even if there's an improvement it would be so slim and you would almost never feel the difference in handling. Just my opinion of course. All it matters you are happy doing it and you feel the difference.
at lest her heads don`t goto 1 side like before.

This my friend is called perfecting your car, even though you may already see it as a perfect machine (or not). By those small increments in moding, in the end you get a finished package at all chapters: engine, handling, braking, looks, ice etc...and when you climb in a factory E60 as yours will probably remain, into a moded E60 you will feel the difference like ALOT, at all chapters mentioned above. Maybe some people are more sensible than others and like to tweak their rides just the way they want it, but after time and time of moding (assuming you don't throw 30K in the car in an instant) the results pay off. JMHO
But here we are all one BIG family so Pace! You are in the EU and keep on! btw I never understand why fine-tuning a car=meaning to optimalise and get the best out of it make so much emotions on the dark side of some ppl
All I say is respect of all note: a quality tuned car is a piece of Art, moding can be also like when the sculptor make a nice one
just this cost more damn
