Update on Concept #2:
It seems like before I get to my initial concept the 318ti will be converted to what I would imagine what a OEM performance version of a 328ti would be. I need some clearance (ride height) and plain reliability/comfort for daily use, also with where I have to park now I don't need extra attention.
***Once this mid stage portion gets done, we can get back to the concept.***
