the auto/steptronic gear box can survive around 300hp or a little more.
So even if you supercharge your BMW(318-330) you won't make much more than 300hp.

I have a 323Ci and it only makes 280hp with the supercharger.

So there is no worries at all from supercharging your car with the auto gearbox.

If however you have a 330 and you do a stage2 supercharger with headers then expect your auto gearbox to die.

But like most malaysians who drive 325 and below and don't go modding crazy by buying stage2 and headers you should be perfectly safe.

bro casanova,

what's the estimate costs and bhp gain from supercharging (stage1) a tiga satu lapan ( 4 pot )?

Casanova...Nice ride. It was a pleasure to meet you in Sunway that day. Thanks for the interesting website link too. :yahoo:

some info i got from turbo lim(rs impressive)
- the cost for complete installation of sc + intercooler piping RM29k
-it takes 3 weeks to order the sc until it arrive and 1 week to complete the installation
-estimated increment was around 70-80 hp
- the sc tht hv been used in the hypertune car was the latest model which i didnt really like.....NO SUPERCHARGING SOUND....dalam ertikata lain spercharger nie SENYAP....
