just like title said, I finally installed dinan intake, throttle body(thank you znod for cheap price), exhaust and stage 3 software.
All at the same time!!

First impression: Oh my God!!!
My car is freaking flying!! I'm speechless!!
It is completely different car!!
The sound from the intake and exhaust makes me
The throttle response is is amazing. It feels almost like a sprintbooster being installed(I sold it to a forum member months ago).

Now, my question is, how will I stand against stock 550i? or e39 M5?

Joe(r1racer), thank you for your pms. I'll contact you within a week or so for the scoop!!

Your welcome! I have a Dinan intake too and I love it. I couldn't pass up the deal. The RPI scoops make a HUGE difference

Dinan

Doesn't the exhaust sound incredible?

CAI and throttle body are next for me. Dinan stuff is is very well engineered, nothing works better with OEM BMW...

You're still missing one key mod to this...

SprintBooster.

It still makes a big difference on top of everything else, including the remap. Trust me.
