Jumpin' Jeez....more Dinan talk.

Your education begins. As you have a 335i suspension, given what you want, you'll need:

Coilovers - Koni Yellows + linear springs >or< Koni FSD + BMW Performance or Sport springs
LSD
Rear M subframe bushings
M sway bars
M control arms, including M rear camber arms
Rear toe arms

As Dinan won't do, for instance, a LSD for your car, and everything else is significantly more expensive than competitors, you should look around.

Or, you will pay accordingly.

And please, do the suspension + drivetrain before adding power.

Good luck with it!
