Mods to a stock E63

Want to do do some minor mods to my otherwise stock E63. Not looking to be the fastest, but just want a bit more performnce from the E. Went to one shop today and they sugguested I get...


1. Charcoal filters
2. Resonator delete with x pipe
3. Eurocharge tune

Quoted me $1800-$2000, does that sound right price wise? I will probably check with other shops as well but just wanted some opinions on what you all think of the price and what's being done. Thanks

That sounds really high for what seems like basically a box tune and some quick exhaust work that will prob yield no additional power, just noise.

i doubt you would notice a significant power increase with those mods.

Long tube headers FTW

Headers and tune on the 6.3 gets big power and you'd be set.

1. You can remove these yourself in your garage.
3. Eurocharged's retail on the tune is $1200 + a half hour charge to install leaves....
2. Any exhaust shop can do this for less than $500-500.
