VRSF to develop for f10 550! Come in and show your support!

Me (asking about the development of upgrades for the f10 n63 550i):

Hey Tiago.. any plans for upgrades on this platform? Panel filters, exhausts, intercoolers, dps, etc?

Tiago:

Panel filters, DP's and an axleback are planned.

That was my PM to Tiago at VRSF who had done great things and has offered quality products to the n54 and n55 guys without breaking the bank. I had an intercooler from VRSF and it was great. Tiago has been known to make things happen and quick. When the demand came for an n54 dpfix he stepped up with his own. Now let's show him we want stuff for the 550i!

Guys, start bombarding him with PM and let's try to get this going full steam ahead! Share this on other forums where other 550i owners are waiting for more aftermarket solutions!

I don't think anyone can come up with a real intake option from what I have read. Dinan had just expanded on the intake snorkel idea that was originally on the euro e36 m3's where an additional snorkel was drilled into the stock airbox and routed to the brake duct and the filter was replaced with a high flowing one. Obviously Dinan's solution on the n63 is a bit more advanced.

Maybe Tiago can score a set of badblack's custom filters and intake scoops and mass produce them with his manufacturing contacts.

DP will most likely be catless and the exhaust well, Tiago had shown that he can make pretty good exhausts for under 900 bucks.

No intakes? Help us!!

When I picked up a 550i, I had no idea that performance parts would be so scarce.

I'm almost to the point of building my own cold air intake. The frustration is making me crazy. I love the car, but driving bone stock car just isn't me...


Cold air, a tune, and better exhaust would probably be good enough for me, but I didn't realize that it was gonna cost 6K just to go there.
