A just switched out the cat for an Active Autowerke cat and moved to stage 2 tune, which I will stay at for a while. Also about to switch out my clutch for the 550i clutch, and sway bars for slightly beefier versions. Any interest in performance upgrades?
yep down the road, same as with lowering the car. just waiting to leave NYC in a year. i had some big power cars in the past and I know what a waste it can be here in the city. I do almost no open highway driving, usually sitting in traffic. I honestly want to get some of those things done as well before even trying to get a tune. Car needs a 550i clutch, new coils and injectors for my peace of mind. I knew going into the car that ZF8 is better for making big power and that the 6MT tranny has synchro issues, and weak clutch… so i decided to first do a bunch of visual mods to get it to a visual state I like. I honestly rarely feel like my car is slow with the type of driving available to me, so I’m waiting til the power bug hits me naturally. Good luck with your cars upgrades!
