3 Stage intake and Stage FP Tune - Why did I wait so long?!

I’ve had the car for 9 years and just had the conversion done.
The driving experience is transformed! “Moar” power all over the rev range and better drivability - even more butt dyno impressive than I expected. Engine wants to rev out - reminds of my RX-8 - and the incredibly annoying difference between AC On and AC Off throttle control during shifting is eliminated. Smoother idle and faster revving. Very very nice work by Stage FP with the tune.

i know what you mean, I finally got around to DIY my own yesterday. Now I need help with tune, this is the first time I have ever added power to any of my rides. if there is anyone out willing to help with the tune side of things, i am willing to pay for your time if necessary, as I am just a mechanical guy, 1s and 0s is not my strengths. I am located in the Great Toronto Area Ontario Canada, much appreciated.

128i is also lighter than 328i with same engine, so after 3IM and tune you feel that power way better comparing to 3 series.

Garage List
The 3 stage manifold and stage fp tune make such a big difference. I have catless headers, 3.91 diff and a lighter flywheel and the car feels like a completely different car than stock. Almost like an e46 m3. The n51/n52 platform are very underrated. Good luck with your car man!
