I recently bought a 2281 m sport and I love it. but I want it to make more power. what parts do I need to buff up in order to stage 1 it.

also does anyone know a good bmw tuner in Alexandria va

Charge pipes, GFB diverter valve, and a tune. I wouldn't bother with much more than that.

The 228 is all about handling and low weight, throwing parts on it will just ruin that magic.

as with any turbo car, chargepipe, intake, downpipe and a tune will do wonders

going OTS with a tune is all you'll want for sure. No need for a tuner. BM3 is your friend with the n20
