My Ride: '07 550i with SP, Nav, Logic7
1. Speed Innovation ECU remap
2. Dinan Stage2 suspension
3. M-Tech body kit
4. Style 172 wheels with PS2 tires
5. Sprint booster (This one I blame you guys )
My favorite is the suspension. The car remains comfortable yet handles so much better.
My wife thinks I have a midlife crisis since I just turn 40

The only things i bought brand new was the mtech kit, vorsteiner deck spoiler, eisenmann exhaust, 166 wheels. The rest was second hand. Thanks to few folks here on this forum. Believe it or not the majority of us still not done modding. Future mods, quads, new diffuser, BBK and Dension.
