Smile What parts should i go for first?

Hey everyone hope everyone is well, I just have a few questions for you all as to what parts i should throw on my '15 428i. Currently I have installed an AWE touring edition axle-back exhaust with an AWE performance mid pipe. I have also just flashed with bm3 and i'm running a stage 1 91 octane. So my question is what should i throw on next? I'm thinking a evolution racewerks turbo to intercooler charge pipe and possibly a MST turbo inlet pipe. I definitely am considering changing the charge pipe first because i saw what can happen after you stage 1 tune and the more boost pressure you're putting on it after a while.

Do i need a cold air intake system? or even a different intercooler? Im sorry in advance if all of this seems annoying or whatever one might think. Im just somewhat new when it comes to throwing on parts myself and i'm slowly learning here and there but enjoying it all as it comes!

Once again thank you!

Wrong forum but I would upgrade the charge pipe first.

Call Kies and have a talk (when they open after Corona) or shoot them an email. They'll be happy to advise you after a few questions. Can also listen to Mike@X-PH up there.

Since you posted on the F80/82 forum you might not get much since we have a different setup. S55 engine has a race block, twin turbos and liquid intercooling. Our main Achilles heel is the crank hub friction discs.
