Was pleasantly surprised today.

Coming from an RS3, one thing that car did very well was handle being driven hard on rougher roads… That was one of the best things I liked about it. After buying the X3M in November and going through winter with winter tires etc and still having a firm ride I was unsure how this chassis would handle those same situations. So today I finally had a nice day with my summer tires to find out… And it did way better than I expected. I have to admit I thought my it was going to be a mess, but it does just fine, especially once the tires and suspension have some heat in them. So that was a nice surprise. It corners flatter than I had imagined, too.

Added some nice upgrades yesterday on my 2021 X3M non-comp.

- JB4
- BMS Intake
- Fuel It Module

This has defiantly unleashed the beast within the S58. Currently running Map3 on E30 and man it is a blast.

I helped my buddy that owns his own performance shop and I am sure glad that I did. He was able to get the hard to reach plug at the bottom of the motor and back pin for the fuel it setup.

Fitment is pretty good, there were some quality issues I am fighting with the vendor about, but I guess you get what you pay for

Fitment looks great! Would you mind sharing the vendor? I have seen this hood before, but was unsure about fitment/quality.

The PS4S will make a big improvement.
