My Ride: A Car
![Default](https://5series.net/forums/images/icons/icon1.gif)
I cant wait for the new mods to come. I cant believe I am dumping so much $ into the stupid car. When I bought it, I said to myself...this is a luxury car and I should not mod it. Well, guess what? Just dumped almost two grand this past month including my upcoming mods. GEEEEZZ!!
Mods already on: Trunk Finisher, painted black calipers - will have pix soon. I promise monday![Big Grin](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/biggrin.gif)
Mods coming: RPI passenger side scoop, DIY dual duct intake to replicate DINAN's CRAZY $800 intake, M5 intake duct, DINAN Stage 2 ECU remap, Vogtland springs
Also just bought a driver side M5 mirror without glass. Gonna keep collecting until I get a full set. LOL
I heard Vogtland's good and with the amount of cash I am allowed to spend for now since I am STILL unemployed without freakin unemployment either (still fighting with them regarding it), I think it's a nice small drop. I realized I only wanted half an inch and not 1 inch. Didnt want to have the tires tucked in.
Will definitely get the dual intake done and Dinan stage 2 before the poconos.

Woah, John. Those Dinan upgrades are going to be sweet. Those M5 mirrors will look so nice. I drove DRANGED'd 550 right after he installed them, and they really make a difference. Congrats.

How big a difference in performance was there between pre and post-Dinan? Was the improved power in all parts of the rev range or just in some?
