Down pipe, JB4 (i think is what the tuner is called) and a nice catback. RPI scoop, K&N drop in and carbon filter delete if yours has it.

http://www.**********s.com/BMW-E60-P...ance-Parts.htm

this site browse through e60 parts. everything will work for your car except M5 obv

This will give you an idea of what you can do to your car. I have done catless AR downpipes, BB Exhaust, Vishnu PROcede intake and I have 450HP roughly now

Working on a FMIC.. Those mods alone will change your car NIGHT and DAY you have no idea. KW coilovers are my biggest recommendation also with this amount of power.

PAIN in the ass getting it in but once it is in it fits perfect. Might have to drop subframe out to get them in. I am going to go with a "CP-E FMIC" They sell them for $900 from Maryland. Google them. Im in Paramus.
