I don't know if it voids your warranty but i doubt any BMW tech will even notice, no one at my dealership noticed i did my upgrade going from a totally different system. but then again they didn't scan the car either. I would say since its OEM equipment designed for the car and retrofits are possible even through BMW. i would call it good. my full cost for the upgrade was $3000 but was a lot of parts and work involved, and a full coding session to make sure it all worked as intended.

maintenance wise the plugs and coils go frequently on these cars and just change your front 02 sensors if you tune your car. i buy all my parts from fcpeuro.com. their warranty is unbeatable and is hassle free. every 10k miles i pretty much do whats in the maintenance procedure.
just note that running a tune with say catless downpipes will cook those front 02 sensors so i change them every other oil change. better safe than sorry. |
Great! I agree, they probably won't even notice. I will talk to Nelson and see what he quotes me.
Thanks for the heads about about maintenance. My O2 sensors were just changed. But, I will keep in mind. Looking to get some Vorstiener copy splitters/side skirts/diffusers for now
