Whats up guys, probably been discussed before but id like some advice, got my N55 e90 Protuned by Brentuning here in MA, my current mods are:

Cobb AP Protuned to 325whp / 408wtq
VRSF 5" Stepped FMIC
BMS CP
K&N Drop-In
Secondary Cat Removal
BMW PE
Alpina TCU

My current dilemma is on my next mod of either a VRSF DP or a BMS Meth Kit, im leaning toward the Meth kit because of emission related issues here in MA, smell of the DP, stalling issues ive read about here on the forums and to avoid the hassle of making the swap from DP to Cat yearly. But my other dilemma is if anyone has had any issues with running the BMS Meth kit with a Cobb rather than JB4. If it would be a pain in the future, any advice would be helpful.

Thanks guys!

but the sound of the DP though! Worth it. I would go with the DP and get a jb4 with flex fuel wires and run E40ish fuel. feels really nice.

Dp no doubt. It will give your car an exotic sound and noticeable gains in power. Are you looking at meth because you don't have access to e85?

easy... go both! trust me on this, i am FBO, JB4 G5 ISO/with flex fuel E40 mix, Pure stage 1 turbo, BMS meth kit. my favorite upgrade to date is my meth kit! i love it. even though i have access to e85 i love my meth kit more. my logs looked way better with the meth kit installed also.

i never did any base dynos before my mods so i dont know if there was a power difference with the xless dp. but honestly i really didnt notice any power difference when i installed mine, maybe there was but didnt feel it on the "butt dyno" haha. on the other hand like everyone including me says the SOUND is awesome! honestly i would spend the 300 on the dp again even if it was only for the sound difference haha

DP for sure

There are a couple stations around me for e85 but i dnt want to go through the hassle of making the trip and possibly having to bump up my fuel pump.
Debating on just getting both DP and Meth Kit, save up a little bit to get a protune and see what it would push.
Just being really hesitant about the DP's but will end up probably getting it lol, if its way to loud may sell my bmw pe, take my Cyba tips off, weld those on my stock exhaust and call it a day.
Thanks guys!
