I installed an AFE air intake.
Not sure if I'm getting more HP and torque but it sounds wicked cool when it's sucking air. Name:  ImageUploadedByTapatalk1336948358.706263.jpg

Awesome, you'll have to let us know if you feel like you've added any more torque and power.

I'm not expecting much, but I'm sure that will sound good

That's correct, AFE stage 2.

As far as the sprint booster, I have it on my Benz it makes a huge diference but the Mercedes drive by wire system is very laggy, the x5 is not that way, I dont think that is going to feel much diferent with the SB.

Designated Driver + Lowered + NGK Plugs + Oil/Filter Change.

After the new spark plugs and Juice (oil), then came the fun part...

As FloRida would say "Shorty got low, low, low, low, low, low, low, low"...


My Designated Driver:


B&G Springs + Sport Struts & Shocks =



A lil' TLC after the operation:


Next up: 4.6is rear spoiler (Hoping for postman to deliver today), Powder coat the Rims (Gunmetal or Black?), Front Skid plate (body color) and fix my dam A/C.
