Thanks guys. Regarding the scoop and the filter, the website doesn't have an option for 528i, I am assuming that's gonna work for all the e60's?
The 525i/530i/528i/545i/550i are the same scoop

Congrats on the car and enjoy the forums!! Oh yeah, and +1 on the Sprint Booster!
I m not sure abt SP but in the market there is this power pedal where u can tune to yr desire on quick power. Its just like SP, which trick the ECU to speed up, but it can tune to milder mode, while SP cant, especially when u reverse r car, n if not careful, will move to fast for comfort.

Do you know if the sprint booster is safe/compatible to be used along with Dinan stage software?

Absolutely... you might want to PM member Eurocarfan though because he had every Dinan mod on his previous e60 and so would be able to give you a 110% positive answer.

just isnt worth doing any performance mods on our cars. SB drinks too much gas and really no other real performance mods.

But check out my mods. You can pretty much do what I did and also get rims, and a nice lookin MTec body kit.

good luck dude
For the SB I got more MPG out of it.
This mod dont drink too much unless you drive it like a F1 car
