New 135i Owner

Robbie135 · 01-19-2016, 05:07 AM

Hey guys,

I've had the car for about 3 weeks now, traded in my FRS for it. I have been lurking on the forums for quite some time as it was difficult for me to find an N54 6MT in the San Diego/Socal area.

It's a 2008 135i with sport package and 82k miles. It was a 1 owner car who took it to the dealer very often to be serviced and chexked on. Based on the maintenance records the only thing the dealer had to replace was the fuel injectors, suprisingly not the HPFP.

Stock for now except tint and angel eye upgrade, but Iam pretty sure on how I want to go mods wise but always looking for input.

For starters:
1.Walnut blast for intake valves
2. Charge pipe and BOV
3.JB4 and DCI
4. Exhaust ( was thinking Berk street and berk mids with VRSF DP)
5. Wheels and so on...

P.S
I want to get a JB4 before CP and BOV but I've been told the higher boost may break the OEM CP?

Just some quick Iphone pics after wash and wax.

Nice! Congrats and welcome!

Congrats!!
Mod list looks good, i would do Jb4 before charge pipe or at least at the same time
I also recommend you do downpipes before you get an exhaust

I was kind of hoping someone would say that

I'll probably go with the walnut blast then a JB4 + DCI combo and so on.

Congrats! I have the same color. Also, I would consider the BMW performance front grills, they are black and will make it look super cool!

Yeah I was thinking the same. Probably going to go with a glossy black over matte black.
