These added steps create a durable, lasting rotor surface that resists road salt and other corrosives. We offer cross drilled and slotted rotors; not only will you feel the benefits, but you’ll also see them. For more benefits please read our individual product descriptions.

Does your engine sound more like a diesel truck than a German sports car? Is the sound of marbles in a tin can all too familiar? Have you noticed a lack of low-end power as the miles have piled up? If you have a high mileage BMW model with the infamous 'VANOS', then it may be time to service the VANOS system.

The VANOS system in the S54 inline-six engine is a finely-tuned variable valve timing adjuster, relying on high pressure oil to function effectively. This high pressure oil is filtered to remove impurities in the oil, which may otherwise damage the expensive unit, turning it into an expensive paperweight. A clogged filter results in oil starvation: a no-no for VANOS. Servicing the VANOS filter at regular 30k mile intervals will help ensure this does not come to pass.

Today's modern engines were made with complex tools that only dealerships seem to have on hand. This forces one to take their vehicle to a dealer in order to get routine service.

The perfect way to unleash hidden horsepower in a modern turbocharged engine is to upgrade the restrictive factory catalytic converter with a smoother, higher flowing unit.

Not only is the unit more robust & dependable than the factory unit, it's also lighter, reducing unsprung weight.
