I'm thinking exhaust, chip and suspension mods will tide me over until i start saving hardcore money for either M3 swap or FI

Conforti's software is some of the best.

Conforti Shark Injectpr + ECIS's intake + UUC exhaust and H&R's is what you should do.

I agree with Bol. Conforti software is highly regarded by most BMW owners that I know, and I personally run his software. Dinan is a very good choice for new BMWs because it does not void the factory warranty, but there is very little benefit to Dinan beyond that.

Quick synopsis on Dinan: overpriced, underengineered parts that are more appropriate for people who don't want to be bothered to research superior products (Dinan has a close relationship with BMW, so you can get their products installed right at your BMW dealership in a lot of cases).

Check out http://www.turnermotorsports.com for a great BMW tuner.

heh none of that stuff fits on my car lol, Shark Injectors only work on 96+ 6cyl (OBD-II), Intakes don't do much for my early engine which measures air volume using a vane which hangs into the intake thus presenting the greatest restriction (i am considering cold air as it could constantly bring cool air, which is at least more dense and maximizing whatever i can get out of intake), UUC only makes exhausts for the 6cyls...the H&Rs are a good idea though
