Hello all!

New to the forums and owning a BMW but have been reading dillegently for a few weeks. I've done some searching and have turned up nothing when it comes to perfromance parts for my 2007 525xi. I understand that this is not a perfromance model but would like to throw on an exhaust and intake to help her breathe better as well as some aero parts and eventually wheels.

Does anyone else have a 2006-2007 525xi and if so what perfromance parts do you have installed and where have you soruced them. I appreciate any feedback.

Do parts from a 525i fit my model?

Thanks again.

Yes they do. Look a couple posts down, theres a thread about getting your 525 almost up to 530 spec.

The one about the intake manifold modification? Read that. Great information. No mention on an exhaust for the 525xi.

"Yes they do" - is that in reagrds to other on the forums having the 525xi or the 525i parts fitting the xi?

I don't know about the exhaust for sure, I'm sure if you ask RPI they will tell you, they are a vendor on the forum here. But the intake mod and programming will make way more power then the exhaust. I would do the intake mod first, exhaust second or not at all.
