Since this was going to be my daily driver I was planning on sticking with stage 2 for smoother shifts, but with the increased power delivery my shop even floated the idea of going straight with stage 3 (aggressive shifts in sport) and naturally more wear and tear on the transmission. They did say that if the car is not being tracked then stage 3 may be "too much for everyday driving" and "may hurt the transmission".
I had a feeling that was the case..likely gonna stick with stage 2. People in the bmw circles seem to love going straight to the “max” option, whether it’s the burble tune or the TCU, without considering daily driving.

I’m sure I’ll be more than happy with stage 2 xhp.

Gotta admit I’m Jealous about the turbo. You definitely need to record a sound clip after.

Which fuel pump did you decide on?
