Set some money a side every month to pay for speeding tickets!! ...... Congrats on your purchase. Do an ECU re-map to start with, if you want to go nuts.

Please tell us a little bit more about you ride. Did you buy it new as we still hear about some units sitting a long time and finally it gets bought (doubting this is happening anymore but you never know). Or did you buy it as a used unit from dealer or private sale? miles if used?

Be real careful with that msport chin or it wil be scraped up in no time. I try real hard not to hurt it but it seems near impossible. The first obvious one is to not pull all the way up in a parking pace or you will scrape the curb or parking space cement block thing.

excellent comment: avoid those concrete bummer eaters

thanks for the appropriate warming.

I scarred the bummer on my 06 330i that way. I'll try to avoid

Coming from a non- judging place ( ) , I suggest you explore this forum a bit and give a bit more detail in your posts.

JBD: piggyback tuner- plugs into the fuel rail receptor. Do-it-yourself install.
Renntech: ECM bench tune. Three dealers in So Cal- not sure of their reputations: German Imports, HG Motorsports and Underground Autowerks.
