Update on the build (Mods!)

So just an update over the last few weeks I have got the following:

- JB4 tune
- AR Design Catless down pipes
- BMS Dual Cone intake
- LUX Angel eyes (colour changing)

Must say makes a huge difference from stock especially the JB4.

The car is a pre LCI E93 black with beige interior.

The performance increase is ridiculous, loving the 0-100 and 2nd and 3rd gear pulls. Have done a few runs with some stock M3's and other imports and have not lost yet.

Looking at doing charge pipe and blow off valve next along with a FMI.

After the upgrades got the dreaded Waste gate rattle as expected lol but have fixed that now mostly by using setting 10 in the JB4 to adjust the wastage as well as manual adjustment of the actuator rod.

Car sounds great with the down pipes and the intake and has a beautiful downshift with some pops at high revs.

I have attached some pics too

Nice eyes! Let's see more pics of your E93!

Edit: Just saw your profile pic. Your interior isn't beige. Isn't that saddle brown?

So awesome. I am awaiting my upgrades right now so I'm pumped. Did you get the dp's installed by a shop or did you DIY?

Trust me its the best its a whole new car in terms of performance and sound!

I went with a shop, wouldn't dare touch the do's myself its not easy, I had a friend do his and took him a VERY long time and had issues later. Better to go to someone who has done a few and knows what to do
