First thing I would do is a tune! The drive is the most important part for me so performance gets priority in my book. Next I would do paint matched reflectors from IND. Then black kidney grills if you like that look. By now you're probably craving more power so go for a down pipe (HFC or catless depending on how much noise you can tolerate) and exhaust/muffler delete (to complete the tone unless you're happy with the stock exhaust note + DP). Next I would go for a charge pipe and intake for a more pronounced turbo spool and a little extra power. Depending on how highly you prioritize your ride height, throw some springs/coilovers in there somewhere. Oh, and some wheels! Ohhhh, and a lip kit & spoiler! Haha I'm going overboard.
Summary: if it comes down to one thing to do next, go for a tune. |

http://www.gtmotoring.com/product_in...c1f11838c2477e I would look for the guys on the forum and find the guys who sell them so you can get a discount though! According to them, a HFC DP should not throw a code. With a JB4 you can go catless and still have no code, yes, but I went for HFC for the same reasons as you but ended up getting a JB4 anyway (which I have since replaced with ECU Tuning Group's tune). In the end, I would recommend the HFC and a JB4 or similar tune. Stage 2 is a great upgrade and you can do it very stealthily if you try to do so. I'll have to check again but I think my ETG tune does not have the messy wire taps that JB4 has and instead modifies engine timing. Feels great! |

I'd lower it a little, being an AWD.

Quick and cheap would be black chrome exhaust tips from the sport line. They look great on my EB 335i. Then get the M paint matched trunk spoiler. And of course, the MPPK.
