hay guys iam interested in getting my 3 in tip top performance shape i was wondering if you think i could reach that goal with the following............

$3000 $1500exterior mods $1500performance mods

so what i want performace wise is downpipes(catless) and a FMIC

can i do that with the budget i have "installed" or am i shootin for the stars.



rules____________________________

downpipes must be ar.............................FTW

FMIC could be anything as long as it cools my temp more then 20F.


what do you guys think i could do......THX

[roozie2001]

no chance. AR Catless DPs are 700. So you want a Tune and FMIC for 800. No can do buddy. Unless ur lucky and want a used JB+ and a used FMIC. Then u mighttttttttt get to that goal. But still doubtful. Best bet is VK Downpipes group buy. $350 shipped. Jb3 pinout or pnp used $300ish. and A fmic used for 700ish. Now exterior mods $1500. used wheels or Mtech body kit. thats my opinion.

Best thing to do is drop the whole 3k on either the outside or the engine and then save up $3k again and use it for the other.

If you were smart you wouldn't waste $1500 on exterior mods, and you'd put that money under the hood.

iam definetly not ganna do anything major for exterior

my plan:.............................................

Predetor ice ae's,gp thunder fogs,splitter,blacklines,dimisa tips,335i black gloss symbols,oem wing.

then i was thinking with whatever i have leftover Used csl's,or used matte black miro ... whatever

and if i dont throw some wheels on iall save the grand and invest in performance mods worst comes to worst iall throw some springs on and drop the car that should make it look aggressive even on stock wheels.








btw what about vk motor works are than any good on their dp's,FMIC's

[Terrance28]

+1 the boost gauge was the first mod I bought for this car.

[gian335]

boost gauge is very important. but for u i would go with helix fmic and ur dp's for the best bang for ur buck and 2 stay within the budget range, you'll still be over shooting though.
