Traded up from a 1997 540i to an 2001 M5. Big differences all around. The 540 was fast but the M5 is really fast.

-in three months I fixed a dead passenger door lock actuator, by ripping apart the door airbag
-installed brake ducts (connected to foglights) and air intake ducting (connected to sinkdrains and 3.75" duct
-BMC airfilters (no oil problems, dry on delivery)
-IATS relocation
-4 of the stock velocity stacks were seperated at the seems and I had to secure them back together

Hey new member here.

Just purchased(last thursday!) A blue M5 T Reg/1999 With 58k miles on it.. FBMWSH and very very tidy, love the car to bits already.. and will be doing the cannonball run in it later this year..

Now i need to know whats the first mod i should be doing? short shifter seems a good choice as the gear throw is way too long for my choice.

Cheers
