535i performance mods

I want to buy new BMW, but can't decide 3 series or 5 series.

Reasons for looking 335i are mainly due to engine performance upgrade, like procede, downpipes, exhaust, but is SMALL car.

535i is bigger but the only performance upgrade is procede. And I really want to buy 5 series because it is a bigger car.

Any inputs of any other performance mod to 535i?

I went from a 335 to a 535. car is has plenty of trunk space and still feels very sporty. I thought you could do anything to the 5 that you could do to the three. They have the same engine.

not true about procede only...


there is also
Active Autowerks, JB3, JB+, SSTT, and Dinan....perhaps even ESS...as stated before, the 335 and 535 are the same engine platform (N54)

try searching e60.net as well for mod'd 535i's


only things you can't put on a 535i yet are downpipes and an IC...the IC is due to the oil lines that run under the stock IC....downpipes because nocompanies have put any out yet...
