Hey everyone about a week ago I picked up a 2013 328i with 112,000KMs on it, everything is stock except a aftermarket valved exhaust and a stage1 tune (by local mechanic).

Now I’m looking at the following mods but just not sure which brands to go with:
- Downpipe
- Chargepipe
- Intake system
- Blowoff valve

Would appreciate anyones point of view on these mods and any recommendations of which brands to go with and why. (Plan on keeping it at stage1 as I don’t really want to fork out another grand or so to go to 2+ & xhp3 at the moment)

Going with a catless down pipe is fine if your intent is to further pollute the atmosphere. An aluminum charge pipe may be in order as the stock plastic pipes tend to deteriorate. The stock intake is cold air. Replace the blow off valve if it's not working. I never fix anything that's not broken.

Ended up placing an order for a VRSF chargepipe, arrives today and will hopefully be installing it this weekend.

Was looking also at VRSF vs CTS catless downpipes and MST vs CTS intake system and can’t seem to make my mind up 😂

Hey quick question as I’m a little confused. The c-clip for bottom of charge pipe doesnt seem to go in all the way? also all youtube videos I’ve seen haven’t mentioned anything about reinstalling that black clip that goes on top of the back of the charge pipe at rad does anyone know if it IS supposed to go back on or not?
