I am needing some advice on performance mods.

I have looked at a number of quad exhaust set ups and feel I have good info on that but unsure what direction to go with for performance mods.
I looked into the DINAN and they claim to be able to get me up to around 350 horse with the Stage 3, Throttle Body and Air Intake. Does anyone have any suggestions on a less expensive or better route all together?

I am also looking at putting on the H&R Sport springs and 20" staggered wheels.

I also want to get the M-tech kit but unsure of where the best buy is on that and what the typical cost is for parts and install or if I can do some on my own?

Other things I want to do are roof spoiler, trunk spoiler, grill inserts.

Any thoughts on Ipod interfaces for this?

Thanks and sorry for so many questions!

for info on dinan mods you could send a pm to member eurocarfan and roleez. they have had dinan 545/550. for other options and parts, including the parts you listed, check out the parts/mods section of the forums and youll find tons of information. to order parts, try shooting a pm to member r1racer. good luck with the mods. where are you located anyway?

Go with the DINAN performance setup you'll be happy with the out come.

Dinan is always a PLUS

The only negative I can think of is your bank account.

Yeah, Garry Romani gives members here 25% off on BMW parts and accessories. There's also member quad_m as well as a few other great performance shops that are also members on this board like JLeviSW, SonicMS, EuroRev...

Anyway, Dinan products are well engineered and their warranty gives you the peace of mind. There's a local dealer here that was selling some 545 Dinan performance parts at 50% off and I posted a thread about it. I heard they won't ship though and I'm not sure if the parts are still there but worth a look: http://forums.e60.net/index.php?showtopic=...t=0&start=0

What you're looking to do to your car is pretty much everything I did to my old 545. Here are a few pics:
