Recent Mods
Hi all! Been an R60 owner (2012 CMS All4) and forum reader since 2015, but I just officially registered and this is my first post. Recently purchased some upgrades and finally installed them: NM Module, Sprint Booster, aFe drop-in replacement air filter. Module is set to high and I exclusively run 93 octane (I've never run less than 91 since owning the car at 11K miles). Definitely noticeable power increases...but I get a hesitation or "bucking" during acceleration since putting in the NM. I've been running the replacement filter prior to the other mods and never had an issue. Would upgrading to a higher flow 360 degree filter help with this?

You dont say how miles are on the R60 now. If over 40k then its plugs time and possibly coils. Also there have been many reports of this issue with the NM on high. IT fulls the ECM into adding boost without enough fuel to compensate. For only $200 more than the NM you could get a full ECU tune and not have any issues.

I have tunes on both of my CM's and both have been back to dealership many times without issue. If your at 55k then even without the NM your ready for plugs. With the NM or a Tune I would suggest NGK 1422's. They are one heat range cooler. Most of the dealers that frequent this board have them. I personally like to deal with Way Motor works.
