It does seem to have a bit more urgency in the acceleration.

whether I gained more power or not or how much, I really don't know. The major difference is how much more quickly the power is delivered... which is a good thing

I'll have dyno info next week

Thanks

That's why it's called a test in minimum traffic, the only time I hit even decent speed there was no one around.. but thanks

Sounds great! Makes me want to make this one of my first mods.

And re: your driving, don't listen to the prudes... maybe use your blinker a little more though

Cheers!

Sounds good. Should have gone for high flow cats. Polluting isn't cool.

Very nice, you pretty much have the exact mods that I would want on my car. I'm just worried to do downpipes since they are not something I could remove myself. If I ever get a HPFP failure which is almost inevitable I would be worried about the dealer/downpipes. I might go JB3,BMS DCI, BMW Performance exhaust.

Luckily my HPFP went out early the life of my car, around 2500 miles.. that's what I was waiting for

But I would wait if I was you, don't risk the warranty yet.
