(Thread Starter) |   Not Ranked : 0 score  Mod Help! What up guys? I just got a '08 Speed 3 and I need help with beginning Mods. I'm new to car upgrades but sportbikes is another story! I'm giving up bikes because I have a 4 month old son now and I need some metal around my body!! My car will be for everyday driving so I don't want to make it to extreem. My thoughts are to add a cold air intake and change the BOV just get a little more power and a respecting sound. Any recommendations on a good Intake and BOV that not going to break the bank? I'm reading about a lot of error codes that can be given from adding the wrong intakes etc. Is the Cobb SRI all that it's cracked up to be? Thanks for your help! |

| Not Ranked : 0 score I have the MS CAI and I've been happy with it. If I could do it all over again COBB SRI would be my choice. I have the stock BPV for now but upgrading to the HKS. Good luck with the choices. Enjoy the MS3! And welcome to the forum.

| Not Ranked : 0 score Get the Cobb SRI and a Forge BPV. The Cobb actually gives you more performance and you can hear the turbo wich is cool. The Forge will give you a cool "ching" noise, but your not going to improve preformance. I did both and loved them.
