Honestly, I have never left a vehicle stock. I mod everything to make more horsepower. I came close to buying an X5M; but, I could not comfortably swing the extra $$ at the time. I buy all my vehicles and keep them a while, so once out of warranty, I hope to be experimenting with bigger turbos, injectors, etc, etc.
It's an addiction.

Good perspective. My Dinan rep told me that the intercooler would make the chip function smoother so i would want to install that if i decide on a chip upgrade.
The problem is that the current 15% discount ends at the end of the month. Dinan said I could buy now and instal later so I may go that route saving a $G.
The main debate I have going on in my noggin is the question of do I REALLY want 520 horsepower? After all it comes stock with 400.
In your opinion do you use those extra 120 horses on a regular basis and are they noticeable?
