Ah the good old days of racing 325i's and 330i's. All upgraded to 335i, 645i and Cayman S dy. Sigh.

DY & E46F ... arrange for a meet up soon. long overdue!

....the cause of drinking too much Ribena...the brain become like size of grape.
 
just to share. ECU remap done on my e90 330i by HIOP with freddie obermier.
when test with a stock e90 330, 0 -100 half car length ahead ... to 160 one car length ahead and 180 difference is more obvious.
i did pre/post dyno and did show like 10whp n 10wnm torque increased.
conclusion is that ECU remaps for NA does gives a slight improvement but wont give us a very significant improvement, unlike turbo cars.
just my 2 cents!

Hi all,
I have a E46 330i sedan. Love the car.
Just read the BMW Car mag (July issue) and in the longtermers section there was an article on a E46 330i that did a DPI (dual program interface that gives two maps in one a) for smoooth driving and ii) sporty performance when you press on the throttle) remap ECU by MV Sports and as a result, the author/owner got better fuel economy (10%) and better performance as well (+12-16Hp and +22-26lb ft torque)...
So after reading that and getting excited, I checked back here on the forum (last time I visited this forum was for tyre sizes and prices and never thought people did remapping here in KL)... and found this thread (long story I know).

(take a breather) So is it worthwhile considering the remapping, especially if Bernard can do a "DPI"??? And if I read correctly, it would be around RM1500??

Any feedback much appreciated.

The bad thing is that this E90 has been so reliable with hardly any problems and issues. No big justification to upgrade yet. Giving it a couple more years and see how. In the mean time I just have to get used to smelling you guy's smoke. haha

E46f, upgrade to Audi 2.0t lar...
 
When E36 appeared in 1991 the 325/328 was producing 192+hp. Not much more on the E46.
Now on the E90 218hp. That's like squeezing 26 horses in like 15 years??
Not expecting much from software mapping for N.A. Need hardwares like cams and internals. 3.0 ltr stroker would be meaningful...

Yeah E46F, Upgarde your ride. i book your rims in advance. :) Your yellow banana can transfer to 335i. :)

i wana book e yerro banana... stock brakes not gud enuf for my heavy breyton's la
DY's 335 got brembo's edi mah..

let me know wen u r done w e ECU mapping, can test w my car...
all i can say is tt i lurve my power box, 2 in 1 is e BEST n priced at a steal as well.
catch up soon bro.. how's e suspension, still using or swapped out edi?

How can you book everything. Everyone is entitle to 1 item each only. You take yellow banana and i take rims. If you take performance exhaust, then i take performance intake lor. mus t be fair.

Have to go to Ingress to check on Anti Knock censors first. Then only will continue with ECU. At the mean time too busy with work. Middle of the year is peak for us. Will slow down near Ramadhan. So better harvest now. Lets meet up soon. Long time no see.

BTW, i removed the PSS long time ago and sold to a Singaporean.

Cheers.

Let me go service my car and reflash my ECU. Then we test powah. You , me and E46F. All 325. Must test all the way to Top end. 0 - 240 kmh. I think we need about 10km.

BMWs = Only Drop-in KNN Filter and Velocity With 18" Wheels

e60FANster = Powerbox with 19" Wheels

E46Fanatic = Performance Intake and Exhaust with Extra light 18" Wheels.

I wonder how far will E46F pull away from me?
 
Just serviced my car today. SA said they couldn't hear any ping noise even when they drove around thier garage. Did a diagnosis check and there was no faults detected on any components. Anyway they flash my Engine ECU and gearbox ECU.
Now car runs so smoothly but a bit under power. Guess the ECU needs to learn my driving habits again.
