2015 535i x M Sport air intake and programmer recommendations??

I would love to have some of your opinions on the best option for upgrading my air intake and purchasing of a power programmer. I just purchased this 535i x M Sport less than a week ago and i've done some research on different options for me to invest in to get some more power out of this engine!

This is the first BMW i've owned and i'm not quite as familiar with BMW's top aftermarket brands and places to send my business. I'm all ears, or in this case eyes, to your suggestions and comments/ ideas.

Programmer i've found that I think seems decent... aFe Scorcher Programmer Upgrade - Part #: 77-4630x ... $449.00

The air intake I have seen that I am considering is ... aFe Intake Kit - Stage 2 Si Sealed Intake - Part #: 5x-82082 ... $479.00

If anyone has an recommendations on different websites they use for their upgrades, I would be more than willing and interested to take a look. Thanks for your time, and Happy Holidays!!

@Snowy734, have you ever take a look on BMS products?
Price wise, it is cheaper than the AFE, but less pretty.
Let me know if you need to get a hold on any of them.

I have the aFe Scorcher and I like it. Very easy to install and pretty noticeable improvement in acceleration. The car is a lot more fun to drive. I have not tried the BMS tunes. I am actually getting ready to try RaceChip Ultimate to see what that is like.
