these look of similar fit and finish to the F80 DPs from Zima Motorsport.
Also before upgrading maybe more folks track their car in stock form to about 9/10 to and you will quickly realize that these mods are not that important any more. That does take balls and skills however so dont say I didnt warn.you |

I would mod a brand new car. Not a reflash but hardware changes to improve the power of the car and/or handling. It would be most cost effective in my opinion. U spread out the cost of mods from the day u buy the car till the day U sell it. Downpipes are good mods but I would suggest downpipes with high flow cats instead. Lesser power yes, but better for the environment at the same time more power. No?

The S63tu’s been around for many years now and guys are blowing engines left and right on the F10 M5, many of whom I know personally. We’ll see how the tunes for the F90 develop. One thing’s for sure, BMW NA’s all over tuning. Gone are the days of worry free modding. There’s a price to pay to play the game. Piggy and FBO has been my route of choice.

I mod the hell out of my leased cars. Put it back to stock and sell parts at 50%. Totally worth it. Got to pay to play. FTW

Had downpipes on my previous M5 and literally put them on right away after delivery, car was amazing with them. It totally transformed the response and overall enjoyment of the ride!

ED mods

As your mentioned, all relative "boys with toys will play".[/QUOTE] I am correct to assume that catless downpipes make the vehicle fail any future emission tests if left on? I would have thought the enviro regulatory types would have picked up on the catless DP mods when the car was inspected on import back to the US after you were done with the ED? I guess they don't look the cars over too closely or are the secondary cats adequate to meet emissions regulations. (too quote another member on the forum.. "these things eat trees and bunnies") |

"these things eat trees and bunnies")[/QUOTE] There are so many vehicles moving through the Brunswick Port, that CBP is probably only looking for contraband within ED vehicles if selected for secondary screening. The FDA does dosen't check for emissions either. The EPA is looking out for the diesel vehicles. Also, I had the CEL removed during the ECU tune so it won't trigger during US import, VDC, PCD or the center during service. I can still smell the emissions, as my PC delivery specialist was informed of the catless DP's when I returned 4 wks latter to pick-up the F85 and he noticed the emissions/exhaust sound in the enclosed PC bay during the F83 delivery. South Carolina doesn't have annual emission testing.

The people modding these $100k+ vehicles have money to burn. I kept my F85 tame by not installing catless DP's, but was tempted. The F90 with DP's would be a monster.
