Do performance productsactually make a difference? |
|
lets say if i were to buy a
cold air intake... would
buying the k&n cold air intake
system actually make a
difference from buying a
cheaper cold air intake system
on ebay for about 35 bucks?
same with dc headers with some
other headers for 80 bucks
when they look almost
identical.. |

I feel that I can answer this
question. I have the exact
same car, only in a Saloon
(sedan.)
First, I'll tell you what to
do, and then I'll tell you who
to have it done.
1. Install a short-shift kit
from Dinan (if you have a
manual, otherwise, there
really is no point in tuning
your vehicle, it is so much
harder and simply not
effective) have your BMW
dealership install it, they
can do this because Dinan is
BMW certified.
Expect to pay $200-300 for the
shift-kit, $150 for the
installation, sorry but its a
BMW. You will reduce the throw
by 35% and thus, increase your
times.
2. Reflash the ECU for a more
powerful fuel management plan
(map.) You might not want to
do this if you install an
exhaust or air intake (then
you want to do it all at
once.)
Horsepower gain: Anywhere from
10-25, never more than 30, but
possible (bad Miles/Gallon,
though)
Dinan is probably the best for
this
3. A cold-air intake or
power-flow intake. This is a
new intake that is very easy
to install and allows your
car's engine to breathe
better.
Good brands: AEM, AFE,
Bavarian Autosport, Dinan,
Korman, UUC Autowerk, Active
Autowerke.
Horsepower gain: No more than
10 bhp
3. Exhaust! This is where you
may get significant change.
The engine may be louder,
throatier, sportier and most
importantly, more powerful.
Exhausts are complicated and
require experience and help,
not to mention a car-lift.
First, there are the headers,
new headers, way, way more
power. Very expensive, headers
start at $1,500. Next there's
the cat-back, against
potentially expensive. Cheaper
cat-backs include Borla,
expensive cat-backs are
Supersprint, but very, very
good. Then there's the
muffler, Remus is a good way
to go, this is what I have and
gives it a new sound and more
power.
The purpose of redoing the
exhaust is the reduction in
backpressure which allows the
car to exhale better. Expect
to dole out a significant
amount of money to upgrade an
exhaust. There are of course
other permutations you can do
with your exhaust, like
getting a racing cat-back as
opposed to a standard or
sport. Much louder, more
power!
Horsepower gain: 20-35, never
more than 35, unless its a
racing exhaust. Expect more
like 20 bhp.
Keep in mind, if you purchase
an exhaust, you must, in
almost all cases, reflash the
ECU, and otherwise you will
have problems. My best advice
is to just take it to the
tuner and have them do it, it
is a better end-result and
more balanced. Good luck. |
