Please help with installed performance mods
Hey guys, just picked up a very clean 2012 1M with 6.000 miles, its a beast, much more than I remember when I test drove one at the launch back in 2011, Coming from 487hp C63, my 1M feels as fast, but much more raw and the sound is a bit louder, I know my M was "lightly modded" according to the original owner, but I bought it from the BMW dealer and I honestly dont know nothing about modding cars. Can you help me identify the installed mods and if I should keep them or dump them away and replace them with the OE parts , thanks.....

Pic#1 is Evolve axleback which is rebranded Supersprint. Keep if you like the sound.
Pic#2-3 is aFe sealed air intake. Would fail smog visual in CA. To my knowledge the stock intake is not a bottleneck for air flow. Pic#4 is evolution racewerks charge pipe. Keep because stock piece prone to failure. Congrats on the car. |

Congrats on car OP, good mods.
Man, i really wish Eventuri made an intake for our cars..there just isn't too many intakes that look amazing..Gruppe is the only one I've seen in the past 7 years that I would ever get but I have better mods to spend that kind of cash on. |

Thanks for your replies, I took a deep look and thankfully its still with the original intercooler, downpipe and cats. So just an axleback Evolve exhaust (which sounds fantastic btw) and the AFE intake and charge pipe. Very happy with my purchase!
