Hey great thread, lets use it to list all performance mods for the N55.
we can get someone to update the sticky.

Juiced46 confirmed fitment for the AMS exhaust.
I'm sure other exhaust for the N54 will fit the N55- just need confirmation.
as soon as someone test fit one we'll update this thread.

I'll be testing out the Vanguard system, hopefully this week.
