Wow… Congratulations ‼️

What inspiration for many of us M2 owners

This is exactly the kind of thread I come here to read
thanks man !! I'm glad I can share my results to help others with their M2 build
You're seriously encouraging

I am just about to jump on that slippery slope

One more bolt on and it's time to develop myself a serious game plan
which bolt on ? and you should, the car is a whole different car now and I'm having a blast ! maintenance all up to date and having way more fun than before !
I currently have the following on my N55 M2 with a stock tune…

AFE
CPipe
MST Inlet
Intercooler
TurboSmart DV
HJS 300 Cell SportCat

Cat is incoming from Germany

I maintain all aspects of my car religiously
ah gotcha, if you want some more power, I'd def recommend catless with a tune. it would make a hell of a difference
At some point I might

It's not holding me back that much

I need to figure out which tune I'm going to go with

And more importantly how simple to keep the fuel upgrades

It's hard to imagine how much traction loss there will be with so much more power

Is your car DCT or is it a six speed?
mine is DCT, surprisingly I don't spin too crazy. I spin in a straight line through first and second. I think a lot of it has to do with the turbo lag since my turbo doesn't spool till 3200 RPMs. I would say BM3 is a solid affordable tune and has lots of options for good tuners. if you want to stick with 93, you probably will just need a HPFP upgrade and a turbo upgrade. if you know you want to run ethanol, I'd skip the HPFP and run a LPFP upgrade and port injection for maximum bang for your buck power. also, be prepared to do oil changes more frequently, get your spark plugs gapped according to your tune, and make sure your injectors and coil ignitions are running smooth. I do oil changes every 3k milage, gapped my NGK step 2 colder plugs at .020, and replaced my injectors and coil ignitions. maintenance definitely isn't cheap
