I added on 450cc .... err sorry thats **** 
I have the RPI scoops (not sure about the gains), the RPI full race exhaust, and the Powerchip ECU to remove the SES light. I think Im gonna add the BMC filters too. Whats your thoughts on the DCT pulley and where/which do I get one if its worth it?
I know Ill lose some ground with the 20 inch HRE P40's.

You should have Jeremy from Powerchip tune your ECU! A filter is good for a few ponies, pulley I went with Rogue Engineering, really good stuff on the DCT, there's actually two pullies, very easy to install. It is good for at least 8-10whp.

LOL, Jeremy already did the tune but its not a dyno tune, just a generic tune that eliminates the SES light.
I think im gonna go with RE too, but does the power steering tighten up at lower speeds?

Sorry, it's too late.....after getting "spanked" by DJSJ5's M3, I had to get the ECU flashed. I notice a tremendous difference in pull over 5,000 RPM's. Before the flash, the HP was generally flat between 5K and 7K RPM's. Still not sure if I can keep up with that awesome DCT tranny, but it should be much closer now!

I like the exhaust a lot. Its a got a little bit of a tingy noise when it warms up but once the temps reach optimal its super loud and the gains feel great.

Plus did you feel any gains from the pulley? For me it will be all gravy since I did the major mod first: exhaust.
