Estoril blue 435 x drive build thread!
Hello everyone!
M-Sport 435 X- drive build thread. Packages M-Sport Technology Cold weather Current Mods MHD Stage 1 tune Bms Intake VRSF charge pipe So I'm a transfer over from e90 post, as I previously had a e90 325xi. Small few suspension mods and 18's of a 135. About a month ago I purchased a 2014 435 x-drive with cold weather package, technology package, and obviously the msport package with 71,000 miles on it. I was browsing between a few other cars including a 335 and an b8.5 s4/5. The colors what really drew me in, along with the bmw brand loyalty, not to mention precious issues with Volkswagen group cars. I purchased the car through CarMax Warwick, got it shipped in from Indiana. That whole process took about 3-4 weeks. Then I got the call that my car arrived, signed the paperwork and drove away. Future mods Downpipe unsure wether I want to go catted or catless Exhaust Upgraded fmic Lowering to get rid of wheel gap most likely air ride or coil overs Trunk lip spoiler Front lip |

Thank you!! I Already purchased the MHD licensing just waiting to install it. I like the idea of the flash tune, it was either that or BM3

Fantastic car - and color! Congratulations.
If your N55 equipped vehicle still has an original charge pipe (made of plastic), please consider replacing it with Evolution Racewerks one before applying any tune. |

Mods 2&3
So first off I purchased a BMS air intake off of a forum member evanberger687 installed it for more intake noises, not really caring if they're is any actual performance gain. Also the next day before I could make the post, I decided to pull the trigger on an MHD license, and stage one tune. Pulls so much harder, the burble is nice too. |

Yes! In the area I'm in (Eastern CT) I never see estoril blue 435's, or even msport 435's I'll see a decent amount of 335 msports but never the 435's! And within the next week or two I'm going to order a VRSF chargepipe

I ordered an eBay trunk spoiler, m4 style, I love the way it looks, doesn't fit perfect though, ordering a CF one soon!

Mod 4
VRSF charge pipe Hopefully installing Sunday with a small write up. Shout out to VRSF for a seemingly great product and very fast shipping, (basically at my house next day even though I live a state over.) I figured it would be best to upgrade before it's too late and I'm stranded somewhere with a broken charge pipe. I'm also waiting for an oil change kit from FCP Euro, along with new windshield wipers and a few small maintenance items from ECS. I also decided to remove my trunk lip spoiler, in search of something of better quality and something that is a little bit taller. |
