[f10 550i]

just wanted to share with you guys what i have done so far and if there are any comments or suggestions,,



so i first got my H&R srings which costs around $405 after shipping..



here is the car before the springs




while fitting





springs being fitted, we move to the exhaust,,

eisenman sport exhaust, costed around $2700 after shipping



got the car up





did the custom x-pipe, 2.5 inches and kept the resenators ( which is somehow lame) but its temporary till i get my meistershaft x-pipe.

custom x-pipe costed around $815 with the fitting of the exhaust





custom x-pipe and eisenmann exhaust,,Done

NOTE: one promblem i faced after fitting the exhaust is that after 4 or 5 seconds of WOT the car starts to lose power then this apears on the screen



solved this by sealing the vacuum line and everything went back to normal,,


after that, took the car for the tune and here's a video of the result
(tempreture 28'C)

the end result














and thats all,, any suggestions or ideas would be really apreciated

(special thanks to Munich Motor Works for all the help provided)

Dinans soon to be released and currently in production Intake system. Its carbon fiber and draws in air from the kidney grills..+30HP and a possible tweak in the stage3 tune. So figure with a full exhaust plus intake system and stage 3/4 tune you can be pushing 550HP and 600+TQ. I think that's pretty sweet.

Curious what are your thoughts of the Eisenmann Sport? Why not the Eisenmann Race? Seems most folks on here are going with either the Race or the Meistershaft so wondered why you went your route? Am looking to likely do a Dinan Stage 2 (once car gets broken in) and add an Eisenmann or Meistershaft but looking at alternatives also so thoughts and impressions would be helpful. Otherwise looks great!

What vacuum line are you talking about also?

[E60orBust]

The line that opens the exhaust valves on WOT for the 550i. I think the other F10's have it also, but basically it "sucks" the inside flap open on the exhaust tip that would other wise be shut.

Hi there,

Brand new to this!

Question: I have a 535 xdrive M sport. As you know 4 types of suspention. Now when you had the H&R put in was it easy or required more work done because of the wiring in the shocks??

In what picture do you see wiring coming out of his shocks?

And to OP - nice mods and props to using a CD in the age of USB thumb drives

[gragi]

I did not see a pic of the wiring, however was told by a mechanic when I asked for a estimate to install the H&R's

[gragi]

Anyhow, I just paid for a Meisterschaft Catback and H&R about $3300 out the door. However exhaust will be taking 6-8 weeks to be delievered as GThouse has been having high demand. Plus called Dinan today to find out about the software and was told that they are working everyday on this very different/unique and hopefully we would be able to get it soon. Guy would not give me a time though... This is all I am planing to put on my 535 xdrive.
Any thoughts? Sugestions? Anything else I should add? What do you guys think about Meisterschaft, quality wise? Sound wise? Very loud or just right? My 2 previous cars M3 2004 and 330i 2001 were both tuned by Dinan.

Hi there, your car looks awesome. Especialy being this low. What brand springs did you use? How much did you lower your car??
I purchased H&R and planing to install as soon as I get them. Is the install difficult? since I have M pkg and 4 types of suspension.

CKS coilovers! I had my local shop Trinity Autosport installed it back then.

Was looking under my 535 today and cant seem to locate any vacuum valves and/or hoses. Must be a 550 thing exclusively.
