When you think Turbo, how can you forget Active Autowerke! Here comes trouble....

Prestigefrzn · 02-15-2007, 09:36 AM

Hey guys, I am kind of new to this board. I have been lurking around for quite a bit. Reading a lot of posts, gathering information. Best suspension upgrades, etc..... Well, I used to work at Active Autowerke and I stopped by there today and what did I see?!?! The red 335i test car on the dyno with a brand new exhaust system. Lance (yes, for all those that are familiar with TOYOMOTO..

.. that Lance!!) was dyno testing the new software upgrade and making a few tweaks. He said that they are seeing considerable gains but want to make sure everything is perfect before actually bringing it to market. The exhaust was in the final stages. It is said to be about 37lbs or so (100% polished stainless steel design); I cannot disclose the horsepower figures as yet since testing is still being conducted. I took a few pictures. I will try to upload them later since I am at work now. Toyota has limitations on what you can and cannot do on the internet

.

From what I hear, Lance is going to be heading the 335i Project. I will keep you guys posted on any new information I gather. For all those that are familiar with Active Autowerke and Lance from Toyomoto, should already know. Whatever this team is putting together will not disappoint.

sweet AA stuff has always been good and always been expensive

jerrygarcia · 02-15-2007, 12:23 PM

funny i was actually thinking today that it was odd that I had not heard anything about AA getting their hands on a 335.

RRGOO7 · 02-15-2007, 04:02 PM

i just talked with omar over there and i was going to go for a ride in their 335...cant wait to see the pix

BoostedBMW · 02-15-2007, 05:09 PM

This is good news.

Hopefully they will develop a shortshifter next, unless they already have one.

Walked U · 02-15-2007, 05:17 PM

I think of s/c when i hear AA hahah

revah2 · 02-15-2007, 05:55 PM

My buddy's m3 is supercharged from AA, it has been now for a year, let me just say that thing could fuckin run.. they make very reliable, reasonably expensive, but kick ass products.> good stuff

Red Star Rising · 02-15-2007, 06:40 PM

Hey Prestige,

You remember me? Alex, with the SG/IR M3....well had the SG/IR M3...
Last time I saw you was rolling out of HIN Miami....I bought a new 335 coupe 6MT.

Haha its a small world....

IndianPoweredE90 · 02-16-2007, 12:08 AM

i hope their first product is a short throw shifter.. i think the 335 is dying for one.

Not sure if the dyno next to it is the 335i's. But it says 335 rwhp?

http://s51.photobucket.com/albums/f3...=Zhp330SAE.jpg

Can someone clear this up.

Red Star Rising · 02-16-2007, 02:50 PM

Thats probably for a 330ZHP...most likely a TS setup.

Aren't those dyno results from the 330 turbo kit that they were working on? The titles "Zhp330SAE.jpg" make me think so. They were working on a 330 turbo kit but switched to that bad ass M3 turbo kit. If I recall correctly they said that they might revisit the 330 kit after doing the 5 series.

Walked U · 02-16-2007, 02:55 PM

Ahhh thanks guys, Sorry I didnt pay attention to the title. I was excited for a sec.

e90335i · 02-19-2007, 12:30 AM
