BMW- Additional Accessories and Upgrades

The BMW is advancing further by accommodating to the demands of their owner’s adventurous lifestyle. The aftermarket accessories include snowboard carriers, swing-away, mud guards, the hitch mounted skis and even all-weather cargo liners for both the E70 and E53 models. This is synonymous with the assumptions of the marketing team for BMW, stating that current consumers have lifestyles which require a flexible vehicle for all purposes. The consumers nowadays have higher demands and can afford the additional accessories.

The consumer nowadays is not satisfied by simply accepting the original product, instead they look for aftermarket upgrades available to dramatically improve the performance of the vehicles as well as add more value to it. These aftermarket systems are becoming more popular as their manufacturers are keen to provide products which are of equal, if not higher, quality in terms of craftsmanship and also engineering compared to the original manufacturers. They have identified and improved on these performance systems and have come up with ingenious devices to boost the vehicles.

For example, if you decide to upgrade the BMW Performance system for air intake, your engine’s efficiency is improved by reducing the fall in pressure causing a boost in both horsepower and torque. This will also increase the engine RPM and also its output as the upgrade also allows the engine by-products to clear the vehicle in a more efficient manner. It also enhances the air circulation system and the power of your motor, evident by producing a deep throaty rumble which each rev.

Another popular choice is an upgrade to enhance the vehicle’s suspension and handling systems. This is known as a short shifting system as it improves the shifting ability for transmission by reducing the distance between gears resulting in a smoother shift ratio. These high performance control arms will increase dramatically the handling capability of your vehicle, delivering immediate reactions regardless of the condition of the terrain. Adding a carbon strut brace further improves the handling around corners, especially on uneven surfaces. It ties both front strut towers together and causes a more rigid front chassis along with a quicker steering response.

These are just a few of the aftermarket systems available to help upgrade your vehicle. Take some time for research and pick the upgrade most suitable for your motoring needs.
