Next time I pop over the bridge to see my old folks I should swing by and compare,,,

Yours looks nice in that colour format, I bought an F11 2 weeks ago, already done most of the mods, also had it mapped last Saturday along with the DPF delete. Its a complete animal now, the 535 was quick before the map,,,, now its scary fast.

If your thinking about it with yours I would recommend getting it done, you will be surprised.

Looking lovely steve! Cant beat the m sport f11's in white. 2nd favourite colour next to space grey.
Really very envious aswell , 535d!! I just couldnt stretch to it at present, maybe next time though.

I bet shes a rocketship, had mine remapped today a avon tuning, its quicker but didnt set my world on fire, still shes a pretty sporty family car!

Yeah whenever your over this way mate, i dont mind grabbing a coffee and having a natter Magor services is pretty central.

Keep me posted, Rhys.

You both have a nice f11's there

You mentioned no difference with muffler delete. I'm sorry but I have to disagree with that. When I had my quad exhaust done (muffler delete) yes, I couldn't really tell any difference until I took it for remapping and it's turned out the car is almost 10bhp down compare to the factory standard !!!
Considering car was over 250 brakes the -10 wasn't making any difference that you could feel.

After few tweaks to the exhaust and cleaning the dpf we manage to get it back without touching maps. And then after remapping I'm running now just over 315bhp with over 600 torque and the car is absolutely flying on every gear

Question: how did you lowered your rear axle? I'm having a problem with finding good coilovers because of the self leveling bags on the back? so im considering put the car on the air suspension but that doesn't come cheap

Hi michael, in the h&r f11 spring kit there are some adjustable links for the rear these are basically used to trick the rear load sensor to raise or lower the rear end. I have seen someone on here fabricate some and sell them on the forum a while ago however they were for an e61, but are the same fitment as f11.

Hope this helps. Oh and heres a picture of the link in question...

Woow that 520D is looking amazing!! Loving the Wheels!!

I've just got an F11 a bit over a month ago, also a 520d... just done wheels and front grill and a bit of decal design on the back since I'm a graphic designer and like cutting my own stickers
