4. BPC tune, probably custom cause I'm planning to visit them to get as much as they can take out of that engine.
5. Did I mist something ? I guess it's all I can do to wake up my e91
you didn't mention AA headers
Cause I don't want headers. With headers car will be to loud for me and I want to avoid emissions issue.

It just a video. Everything depend of the camera. The best would be to drive car wit headers and pe. Wagon is more family car and is not gonna look/sound nice with loud exhaust in my opinion. Sound of pe only is perfect

I hear you, sound of PE is awesome. Also driving a loud wagon around the block with family in car is not a pretty picture. Guess PE and AA Header is not a good combo if you don't want a loud car.

Want to hear more sound clips and people's experience with PE and AA Headers before putting off this idea. Anyone want to chip in?

That's what I'm saying lol + headers might get you some 02 errors from what I heard, but I'm not sure.
