Updated | F32 - OEM 437M / ECS 2 Piece Rotors / MPPK / M-Perf Quad Tip Exhaust

Update 3/19: Added MPPK last week and did the MPE over the weekend. I actually welded the tips on this time and wrapped everything in header wrap for shits and giggles, I think it finishes it nicely. Can't hurt to have some heat protection back there as well since it travels right next to the battery box with the quad tips.

MPPK + MPE is an expensive addition all things considered, but for piece of mind with the CPO it's worth it. In addition, the JB4 vs. MPPK argument is settled for me based on the basic dynamics of a flash tune vs. piggy back. I like the comfort of knowing the entire DMU has updated software to work with the additional boost levels, zero drivability concerns. The engineers at BMW beat this thing into the ground before releasing it, so I sleep easy at night. MINI REVIEW: Its certainly noticeable, but after a week I'd say I'm accustomed to it. Regardless of how far you go with power adders, you'll always chase that dragon. BURBLES Mmmmmm

Modification Intent

Just going for the OEM+ look, more or less how I would have liked the car to come stock. Adding MPPK this week and probably an intercooler in the near future to help with the Florida heat. Does anyone know the factory suspension's scrub radius specs??? Need to figure out how much the additional width and offset has affected my alignment. Thanks!!

Suspension - stock msport

Exhaust - ** Update - M-Performance Exhaust w/ my own fabricated tips:

Some additional info for future

OEM 437M weight vs. Stock

437M - Compared to stock 441M
- Front: 9” 21.9 lbs ET29
- Plus 8mm inner and 18mm outer
- Rear: 10” 22.7 lbs ET40
- Plus 11mm inner and 26mm outer

441M - ~25lbs each
225/45-18 26lbs -> TOTAL Wheel+Tire: 51lbs
255/40-18 30lbs -> TOTAL Wheel+Tire: 55lbs

437M -
235/40-19 23lbs -> TOTAL Wheel+Tire: 44.9 lbs
265/35-19 25lbs -> TOTAL Wheel+Tire: 47.7 lbs

TOTAL Wheel+Tire Weight Savings: 12.2+14.6= 26.8lbs

Brake Rotor Weight Comparison

M Sport 370x30 blank - ~27 lbs
M Sport 345x24 blank - 19.8 lbs

ECS 2-Piece 370x30 - 25lbs
Brakenetics 345x24 - ~same weight

Thanks all for the compliments!! I know it's not the craziest F32 when it comes to mods, but I just wanted to build it how I felt it should have come from the factory. OEM-ish, but slightly more aggressive, yet still sleeper enough that everyone in the parking lot doesn't know you've modded it. Appreciate the feedback
