Suby01's X3 M40i Build - You Owe Me a 10s SAV
Hi Everyone!
I'm beyond excited to be able to share my build process with you all! I joined this forum in August of 2019 when we were shopping for our very first BMW. This forum was very welcoming and informative at the same time especially for a complete BMW newbie. The M40i checked off all the boxes that we needed. I say "we" since this is my wife's primary car, and she spec'd it exactly as she wanted, I helped with some mod ideas of course. We took delivery of the X3 in October of 2019 and have enjoyed it ever since...on to the build! 2020 BMW X3 M40i *Alpine White *Black Vernasca Leather with Blue Contrast Stitching *Carbon Fiber Interior Trim *Executive Package + Live Cockpit Pro *Driving Assistance Package *Adaptive M Suspension Ohh yeah and it’s pretty fast too. (Dragy enclosed).

As for the strut brace TBH the placebo effect is minimal with your typical "oh I added a suspension upgrade, so it handles different/better." In other cars there actually was a noticeable different driving feel without a brace and once it's added, on our car not so much. It's probably engine bay bling more than anything, when I saw the matte black option it's as "blinged out" as I wanted to get.

Majority of these photos were taken by ryan thomas images. He was doing a promo where 100% of the photoshoot cost would go to Foodshare our local food bank, I could not pass up the opportunity.

Thanks! Should be a current World Record for E30 at least and for stock turbo as far as I know.
