2016 428i Gran Coupe N26 Build

Hey Guys

I recently went full bolt on my car and wanted to share my build. I am running Bootmod3 Stage 2 E30 with aggressive burble.

Parts:
Injen Evolution Cold Air Intake
CSF Intercooler
FTP Chargepipe
VRSF Catless Downpipe
AWE Quad Tip Touring Exhaust + Midpipe (Cat Back)
Vicrez Carbon Diffuser
Vorsteiner VFF-107 8.5 Front and 10.5 Rear.
275 tires on rear 235 on front.
Bilstein B14 Coilovers

The response in the car feels great, definitely am very happy with BM3 and have had absolutely no problems with running the E30 tune. Only issue i had is the fitment between the CSF intercooler and FTP turbo to intercooler chargepipe, I was not able to put it on due to fitment issues. Engine to intercooler chargepipe fit well. So as of now I still have the stock turbo to intercooler charge pipe. I would highly recommend buying the same brand chargepipes and intercooler if possible to avoid fitment issues. I have been running this setup for about a month now and its been great. I ordered the go fast bits diverter valve and oil catch can and can do an update once i receive those and install if you guys want let me know what you guys think of the build so far

I like the garage organization.

Oh, the car looks great too! Subtle yet purposeful.

Looks awesome. I'm waiting to go stage 2 as well. I'll probably stick with 91 octane map. Hopefully my Active Autowerke's intercooler will ship by the end of the month. I've been waiting for it about 6 weeks now.

Thanks man. It took me forever to get some parts too due to COVID. Hope you get it soon, I was running the 91 octane map as well before the E30 it feels real good. You'll definitely enjoy it!
