New Guy — Just picked up a Gen 2

[CigarPundit]

I’ve been lurking here for a while, doing my FORScan research, tuning research, lighting and bumper research, etc. Just picked up my Gen 2 and I’m loving it. My other car is an F80, and us M3 guys seem to like the Raptor. Anyway, thanks for the great info on here, and let the mods begin!

Very nice. What mod you going to do first?

I guess technically my first mod is the stubby antenna, lol, since it comes today from Amazon.

I’m going to get at least 1500 miles on it before I do a tune, just to make sure everything seems to be in order and I’m not going to need early warranty work.

Probably my first real mods will be to do the FORScan coding I want. After that, here’s what I’m considering:

MPT tune

Front bumper with light bar (*****?)

Upgraded and relocated intercooler

Rear bumper & exhaust mod for better departure angle

Anderson composites CF top ($799) and side ($399) vents

Tires and bead lock rings

In terms of accessories, I’ve purchased a Viair 400P-Automatic portable compressor, a set of Rhino ratchet straps, an Inno RT201 bed bike rack, and a Weigh Safe 4” drop hitch.

Hi twin,
I just put on the Baja Pro series fog lights, I also just ordered the Swarf Works winch mount and a Zeon Platinum 10s winch. In order to put a winch in that sport I have to get the FMIC I got a COBB FMIC gunmetal, seeing since I had to have the FMIC I went ahead and ordered the N-Gauge along with an intake. I am getting tunes from Grarhead and I will also get them from MPT. That is why I went N-gauge and not Cobb tuner, plus they have trans tunes and Cobb does not yet.
