Did my best to capture the handle covers. They simply don't show up on camera as well as seeing them in person. But they look great and feel they fit in perfectly.

So…I did a mod, and my car is still sitting in Bremerhaven waiting for a ride. Someday I'll be able to put these powder coated 863M wheels on.

Good to know. I would likely use somebody local in the Toronto area (eg Budd’s Performance) but a nice summer drive to Montreal would not be out of the question. Plus I would get to bring home some proper bagels.

Grabbed the Wagner charge coolers from the guys at RK Autowerks. Good guys and responsive.

They have one set of the CSF charge cooler remaining.

The adapter is for meth injection, so they sell the adaptor and meth kits too.

I can notice the difference definitely but Like some of you I wasn't big fan of the 'virtual' update vs some physical tune.

Apparently this chip update is processed via a Bluetooth update/uploaded to of the car software , which unlocks more power… and is warranty safe on BMW side.

Now give me more tips on the right questions I should ask to this dealer so I can do a proper verification (have I been screwed or not &#129322
Given I have a M850i as well and looking to mod early next year the website referred to is piggy back mods/chips (granted translated to English) so nearly no different than any other solution on the market. Do you have any more details? A road trip to Quebec is not out of my parameters so hence trying to understand if their offering is anything better than a Racechip, etc. piggyback or just some OEM'd version they offer but at the end of the day same outcome.

Only mod I have made is switching Ivory floor mats to OEM black ones.

Oh, and a OEM boot liner.

Wild Thing.
