Wheels
the rims that we put are the Alufelgen SF-71. The SF-71 was Alugelgen’s first attempt to bring something fresh to the motor sport mesh style wheel. Filets in the spoke create light balance,bounce and shade of color.
Downpipe
Active Autowerke 335 Downpipe (N54)
A turbo impeller wheel speed is mostly limited by the exhaust back pressure within the system. If one could eliminate some or most of this exhaust back pressure, the turbo will spool that much faster and effortlessly resulting in quicker engine revs and increase HP. The Active Autowerke Signature down pipe is designed with the intent to maximize in power. The down pipes are created with the least amount of restrictions possible by utilizing a full 3″ piping throughout with the least amount of bends possible, that is impressive when compared to the factory diameter of 2.50″. What you will experience is a faster, more responsive engine because the turbo impeller now has the ability to spool that much faster. The end result is more power. For added durability, factory like support braces are also implemented to alleviate stresses upon the turbos. Made from 304 stainless throughout ensures a robust and durable exhaust that will provide trouble free performance with the longevity to match. All flanges are 304 stainless with the 0.060″ wall thickness (~1.5 m.m.) Key Features: -Designed with less restrictive curves and more straight flows -Full 3.00″ diameter piping throughout allows for maximum power output -Quicker turbo spool -Durable construction from 304 stainless with 1.50mm wall thickness -Precise fit installation -Full down pipe exhaust support braces relieves load bearing stress

Intercooler
BMW n54 ∆Core™ Front Mount Intercooler with oil cooler kit.
At the heart of the FMIC, we feature a 3” thick bar and plate design that is capable of supporting up to 750hp. We also provide replacement piping for pre and post-intercooler piping. The n54 intercooler is measured at 5.5″ x 6″ x 21″ which is a substantial upgrade from the stock unit. We opted for this size to maximize surface area while eliminating the cutting required for the end-user to install the intercooler. Our FMIC posted a staggering 83% efficiency @6800 RPM whereas the stock unit was 58%. We could say our intercooler is 95% efficient but that isn’t a relative portion of the test and we believe it’s misleading.
