    The point is that your car is standard, with an MRC (or similar) remap and exhaust expect to get 370+ at which point the standard brakes will not be good enough when you find yourself with another 5-10mph to lose into every corner.

        fair point.

        Good idea about the pick-up, saw this inspirational 5 series on ebay this week. Think of all the weight you could save

          by the way,it is the front anti roll bar which will cause more understeer.If you do the rear,the car can become more neutral or aggressive in corners.Search for neuspeed RARB here on the forum.

          also as far as shocks im concerned,i vote for bilsteins with stock springs if you are only replacing the OEM ones at some points.Makes the car less bouncy and still comfortable ride.(no idea how the konis are).

            Konis are in between with minimal increase on softest settings

              HaR RS2 springs Billie sport dampers. Perfect for good road surfaces.
              Bit to solid for pot holed in and out of city commute every day for my liking.
              But then I don't commute.
