Best way to increase the speed is to depress the pedal on the right fully 100%. It's the ONLY way in any vehicle.
Good luck! |

What you have listed is a good start. The Juice Box piggy back system is going to give you some nice power. Some other things you can look into are a full catback exhaust, intake, and an intercooler. Happy modding!

That's not entirely true. On an e9X you can push the little lower lever on the left of the steering column forward, and the car will increase speed fairly rapidly. But only to 115mph.

Sounds like a similar performance route as me (check out my sig). I plan to get a FMIC, meth and should be FBO by then. So far with the mods that I'm currently running makes me when I punch it.

Keep reading...
Best thing you can do is keep reading this forum. There's much more info on the N54 than the N55 but it's getting better. Remember to "search" before asking - you'll regret asking the same or similar question.
Piggys and DPs are a great start.

What you have listed is great, order the bms meth kit with it too. It's super cheap and easy to install and is the biggest bump in power period
