I'd like to know more about these as well.

I haven't read much on: upgraded fuel pump, better/more durable spark plugs, and higher flow fuel injectors.

+1 I'm shocked NGK (a known OEM plug manufacturer for BMWs hasnt made one yet), denso, HKS, etc hasnt jumped on this market yet. They would make $$$$$$.. The only known aftermarket plus so far is the Pulstar and I think I read somewhere that it destroyed some guy's engine...

Denso did, only to withdraw their iridium spark plugs from the market shortly afterwards

Ne avessi un'idea, cazzo!
Voglio dire, è una componente importante per un N54 tuning e brancoliamo nel buio........tu cosa suggeriresti? Hai in mente l'acquisto? Però il JB3 non mi sembra dia problemi di misfire (e ti credo, col piffero che viaggia alle pressioni del V3.2........ed è un bene )
Ero alla Erreffe Ferrara Motori venerdì per cambiare le pastiglie dei freni posteriori, mi han fatto vedere una foto che ti han fatto al boost gauge ed al doppio conico aperto BMS........il mondo è piccolo!

:-) sono stati dei grandi alla Erreffe! avevo spaccato la cinghia che comanda pompa acqua , batteria. Mi hanno fatto tutto in garanzia anche se hanno visto tutta la roba che avevo su. mi ha anche detto che non mi ha fatto la scansione anche se sapeva che avevo un piggy. Mi sa che prendo la versione M anti carbo built up. per il grado sto chiedendo ma penso grado HKS 40-45 che equivale a 8-9 NGK .

I had an idea, fuck!
I mean, is an important component of a tuning N54 and groping in the dark ........ what you suggest? You plan your purchase? But the JB3 not seem to give me problems misfire (and you think, with the pipe that travels to the pressure of V3.2 ........ and it is a good thing)
I was Erreffe Ferrara Motors Friday to change the rear brake pads, I have showed a picture that you have done to the boost gauge and the double-tapered open BMS ........ the world is small!

were the major Erreffe! I split the webbing which controls water pump and battery pack. I have done everything to guarantee even if they have seen all the stuff that I had to. He also told me that I did the scan even though he knew that I had a piggy. I know that I take the M anti carbo built up. for the degree but I am asking HKS 40-45 degree which is equivalent to 8-9 NGK

I put in 2007 BMW 335 and it didn't spit out that plug, but a couple others - a couple denso's, a champion and an AD-1

I put in 2008 BMW 335i and it spit out different stuff - an NGK TR55GP, a DG1 - with 10mm more reach than the NGK that has less reach than the ones spit out for a 2007 and an AD1 with different reach again.


I wouldn't trust anything this website says as obviously a bunch of them are wrong (if not all of them) to fit our cars - and if the one that is 10mm longer than the others is 10mm too long it will destroy the engine!

You're right I think that it cannot find anything for the 335i so it just does a generic search for stuff that "might" fit the car. There is not a snowballs chance in hell a "Champion" spark plug would ever go near my car...

Saw this and made me want to get better plugs even more. This guy did run heavily on a tune and race gas though...

terry was saying he wished our plugs were 1-2 ranges cooler, i'm guessing to help with ignition timing and preventing knock.
