Hey guys. I finally got my Masata charge pipe and fitted it on. The kit is nice and solid, fitment is good.

Saving up for an intercooler next. Car is completely stock other than the CP. Any suggestions? The budget is up to around 700.

Cheers!

Get a tune, you won't notice the intercooler without one.

Good point! Saw another thread talking about BM3 or MHD. Still torn about which to choose. Seems like both are equally popular. Any thoughts?

I can't speak to MHD, but I've had BM3 on my M235i for ~30,000 miles now, and I love it. Very user-friendly, and I've never had any issues. They release updates to the platform (like adding a mobile app) and their tunes constantly. Also, if you ever look at custom tunes down the road, the platform is very supported by some of the big tuners (this might be true for MHD as well, but I have no frame of reference).

Sounds awesome! I think I'll get the BM3 too after reading and comparing all other threads. Am now saving up and hoping that there'll be discounts on Black Friday. Fingers crossed!

Hey guys just an update, got my BM3 and intercooler installed and running. So far so good. Car feels smoother and more powerful IMO. Got the CSF IC at only £510 from ML which is cool, cheapest I can find in the UK right now. Looking forward to more to come.

Cheers.

Thanks mate. Based on the feedbacks I’ve gotten thus far, I agree.
