Hello,
I just got my first M5 over the weekend. Years ago, all through middle school, high school and college M3's/M5's were my dream car. I had a few M3's. Then went through a phase of focusing on my career while driving a 2005 Toyota Corolla. It was a great feeling to finally step into one of my longtime dream cars!
Anyways, I had a couple of questions I haven't been able to find great answers to and didn't want to create lots of threads.
Is it possible to turn off the easy entry/exit? The seat bolsters go out, but when getting back in they never go back to the same position. I'm pretty lean and need them all the way in, and it takes a while to do that adjustment.
After an ECU tune, what's the next best mod, downpipes or intake? What kind of gains are expected? Seems like it may not be worth it.
Everything I've found is tune and downpipes. I'm curious how much downpipes add to a tune.
Should the footwells have color led lighting? Mine are just white, but the display shows them being the set color and somewhere else I read that they are supposed to be.
Are there any good tires for the 20 inch wheels (drag radials or r compound) that will hook up well off the line with a tune? I saw someone broke into the 9 second 1/4 mile range with a tune, downpipes and drag radials.
