Hmm i did tell them to limit it to 6500rpm for the first two runs. I always felt that after 6 or 6.5k the power runs out.

Maybe i got a lucky engine One can only wish.

I can't wait to see a SC kit for this car.

I had 18 miles left on my tank of gas. Bleh..never liked running that low and then pushing it to redline is just all bad! LOL By the time they were done, the comp said i had less than 10 miles left!


$10k i would def pass. If it was half that, i'd consider it. $5k for 60whp isn't that bad.

the feedback on the shifter is tighter on the 328i ... the 325i is loose like a slut ...

i was following Turbo Freaks for awhile, but they put their project on hold. I don't blame em though. That much time and effort and still can't get the ecu tuned. Plus they could just concentrate on the 335i like alot of other companies have been doing.

ten times easier to tune a turbo versus a "smart" car like ours ... its just like a freakin terminator ... learns all your driving styles and shiet
