Hope this helps.... As for what is done to his 550i it has Stage 4 tuning, exhaust, intercoolers, full suspension, Brembo BBK in the front, Dinan lightweight rims, prototype Cold air intake and larger turbos. The top end charge of the larger turbos are impressive. It pulled very hard up top. |

Interesting on the top end pull. I was hoping for more low end boost... it's hard to imagine more than I have now. Up to about 50mph, its feels like a 2 stroke dirtbike when i get up in the rpm. With the traction issues I have with stage 4, I wonder if the LSD would be better than going with any more power.
I got my ASS HANDED to me by a clk63 black series the other day off the line. After that, I'm back to wanting more again...

X2 except the intercoolers I've had on back order just shipped. The intake should arrive late next week so I can install along with the intercoolers. They should really help inlet temps fight the Florida heat. Looking forward to S5

I was wondering if anyone knew if the new intake was worth any points towards the Dinan "badge"? When added to the cart it shows "0".
Thanks!

just ask your dealer to get you a dinan badge, if you have s1-s5 plus the intake, it warrants getting a badge. I asked for one and supposedly they have one for me.

good news - intake & intercoolers arrived at Reeves Motorsports today...
bad news - 2 days ago I started getting the 'fuel system malfunction' message. Looks like next week to get S4 & S5 installed.

Looks great but you didn't do the intercoolers also? Man I would have done that along the intakes to complete the look/upgrade my man! But they do look good. Let us know how they work out for you! Any issues? Noticeable sounds from the intake?

I only have another 11 months left on the lease so another $4000 would of been much. Im actually very happy with the car now. The upper end of all the gears really pulls hard now. The strut tower also makes the car feel a little more solid.... no issues or sounds from the intake btw

Not much seat time yet, but initial impressions of S4/S5 is very good. Low end feels more responsive and instantaneous. The overall quality, fit and finish on these is awesome. Its refreshing to see well designed aftermarket parts. Since picking up the car from Reeves Motorsports all driving has been around town, so I'll reserve my review of the top end performance for this weekend
