Any reason you're going with the Livewire TS over the much cheaper X4 tuner?

Because I dont know any better? Their website isnt very good and showing you want you get, livewire looked cool, with guages or something? Im coming from a diesel, so maybe I dont need all that stuff. At this point Im all ears, I just read something about that one I think? Ill look into the x4

Thanks!

It is hard to find the differences between them. From my short reading, the Livewire is better if you need to do datalogging, but I don't think that's necessary if you're going with 5*. I bought the X4 back in January and I'm happy with it so far.

Don't forget to mention you're talking $800+ for coilovers.....versus $100 spacers....

Ill look more at the X4, thank you.

Ill probably get some 1.5-2" spacers and use the airbags to level it when towing.

All four for $350 and it's a way better upgrade than throwing in a spacer. Labor is pretty much a wash.

Id install myself, how do you adjust them? And how often would you need to?

There is a ring that you put on the body of the front shock that sets the height (or amount of compression) of the spring.

Unless you don't like where you initially set it, you only do it once.

You will need a spring compressor to swap over your springs. And I believe that on the 2013's, there is one nut that has a very high torque spec. You'll want to watch a couple of Youtube Vids and lurk around this forum to see what the procedure is. You'll have to do the same for the spacers anyway.

IMO, the shock upgrade is way better bang for the buck if you're in there. I wish I would have done it to begin with.
