Thanks for the tip, I'm not going with their exhaust but apparently Dinan makes a good ecu tuning kit that I'll be looking into.  

Also as DINA has a partnership with BMW their parts do not void your warranty.

Question for yall fantastic people.  What engine oil do you all use when you change your oil?  

well for those of you who are wondering I ended up doing lots of research today and the only product I could find (excluding the oil change kit you can buy from mini) that supports the BMW LL-01 spec is Castrol Edge:

API SL/CF, ACEA A3/B3, ACEA A3/B4, BMW Longlife-01, MB-Approval 229.3/229.5, Volkswagen 505 00/ 502 00

 

Additionally I picked up a nifty new drain plug:
