Advise on swapping engine of E46 325i into E46 318i (1.9L)

[steven13au]

Hi guys, i need advises on where to start for putting in the 325i engine in to the 318i. Are there many computer and ECU work on the engine? Is it easy to do? As easy as Swapping the Honda Civic's engine? Please let me know. I am tired of 318i's UNDER POWERED performance. SLOOW...

I also dunnoe how much. Anyway, i think i just sell the car and get a bigger CC for more performance. Wasting time and money to swap.

Yes, great idea! The value of 325 vs 318 from year 2001 to 2003 will probably be 10-15k different only but the total costs to swap may be more as there are many parts to swap.:top:
