Excited for my upcoming mods



Getting these in this week/early next
aFe Stage 2 intake
AA Tune
BMW Performance SSK
19" VMR710s

Still on my to-get list:
M3 Control Arms upgrade
New rotors & akebono pads because these stock pads dust like a
BMW Performance Exhaust if someone actually lets one go on the forums
LCI Blacklines

Those VMR wheels are heavy and a large diameter. I would do Apex wheels with a max size of 18" if you want performance.

I currently have 18" style 135s. Just wanted a set of 19s to look pretty I know the heavy 19s wont do any good on a track but considering I have a vert it won't matter anyways. So all the performance mods are for my butt dyno
