Had the Dinan carbon fiber cold air intake installed today on my 2016 340i xDrive. This is probably my last mod on the car except for upgrading my Dinantronics Stage 1 tuner to Dinan's flash tune for the B58 when it comes out next year. I've also installed the Active Autowerke axle-back exhaust and Dinan's Shockware for my Adaptive M suspension. I love how the car drives, sounds and handles now.

Finally got my Megan Racing rear sway bar and new end links installed. BMW quoted 6.5 hours and $7 million. My shop did it in just over 2 hours!
Just a note on the install. It did require an alignment, which they threw in at no cost. |

Finally picked up my car after being at the dealer for a few weeks getting the engine replaced. Stress crack near the rear main seal, covered under CPO warranty. They also installed my ER charge pipe, no charge. After break in, I'll get back in there and do the down pipe and Wagner IC.

Got the spanners out and raised the car a little. Had some very light rubbing on the front when cornering hard due to the profile of the MPS4S tyres, 12mm spacers and the height.
Lifted 8mm all round and replaced the 12mm front spacers with 10's. All good now.

Nice - I'm yet to install my oil catch can. Which one did you go with and did you install it yourself?
I can't wait 10k miles running stage 2, freaks me out too much waiting that long. |

M-Performance Diffuser
Just got my M-Performance diffuser installed from will0621. Couldn't be happier with it.

Too lazy to wash it by hand this morning so I took it through an automatic wash.
Permission to rage on me with pitchforks granted. |
