[jc@]

what you have done to your car? i got mine good with smg bodykit(since its a smg),m3 mirror, acs spoiler, and pedals. but not to performance yet.

its quite hard to get the performance part for 325, mostly for 330 and above.

 

[jeffreychung]

my car 325 got 240hp. more powerful than 330....change hiop cam, injector from 330, intake box with k&n, remove cats, ac snizer muffler, big battery, graunding cable., safc for tuning,,m3 bodykit for good airfolw at high speed.. .and the most important is upgrade cooling system ( put additional cooler for gearbox, change bigger radiator and cut 1 1/2 thermostat spring...my temperature is just about 84 degree..

how much you spend on the cams and injector? safc compatible with 325? 240 flywheel or on the wheel?

 

[wan syahmi]

yes, anyone can see my car, maybe tomorrow ill put my cooler pic. the hp is on flywheel. one thing i forgot to put in, iam also change the pully and lightened my crankshaft pully.. the cost is around 20k. for my cam is just 3800 ( second buy from bmwclub forum) , injector rm4500..and i also got more milage for my fuel and my air aircond more cooler than before...and iam also can push my car over 200kmh along the way, especially to trg and johor...couse my gearbox is more cooler and my car got fine tuning. safc select can fit into any continental cars, u can find it at sunway..i stay at keramat...kl

For 20k i'd reckon you can install S/C for that cost and make more power Still kudos to you for sticking to NA... Can you post up your dyno sheet?
I assume your gearbox is an auto?

 

[wan syahmi]

20k is not just for safc, its for everything if u refer to page 1.iam not tuning on dyno, if i do so, my computer will cut the signal from airflow and just use o2 sensor because if i go on the road , the fuel will lean. iam ever do at joshoua ( milennium motorsport)..after come back, i cannot use safc for normal.although if i remove my air mass, nothing happened.. afte reset everything just normal and i do street tuned,,much more power i got couse tune at real air temp, real load. my gb is auto.

I understand that bro but what i meant was that after all it was done (mods n tuning) did you dyno your car to verify the HP your engine is churning out???

 

[eFortySixer]

hey Wan Syahmi, can you give more detail on the safc setup on your car. I'm interested how you wire the safc to your car.

 

[wan syahmi]

for the installation, averything shows is manual, dunt afraid about that, but for the tuning, dont tuning on dyno.........

 

[jc@]

NA tuning is always the most expensive way. but its also the most exciting way for me. sc and turbo kit is a bit fussy do they?


would love to hear how your car scream!:wink: what's the max rev you can go? 7k? the ori meter only show till 7 k

 

[jc@]

hey b33mer, any engine mod yet?

 

[wan syahmi]

hey b33mer, any engine mod yet?

hahaha ... nope not yet as my car is still under warranty (naza) d only mods is BMC CDA airbox (d sound is addictive) and front and rear struts for better steering response. Quite to contrary S/C would be much easier as tuners like Active autowerke, ESS and so on have a kit for our cars together with the required software. The only downside is it's expensive.
