Your Tuner

[Amir]

Just wondering if any of the tuners you go to also have experience with modifying bmw 335i's.

Ive sourced ones that specialise in these cars, and feel they are very overpriced.

eg. intercooler $2300

downpipe - $2200

ecu tune $2200.

cat back exhaust $3200.

thx

Depends what you want done. Aftermarket or chipped standard ECU.

That does seem a little expensive but there is always going to be a premium for working on such a new, expensive car unfortunatly.

Anywhere should be able to do an exhaust, intake and intercooler setup for it but the ECU will be tricky.

I would like to get the usual upgrades like fmi, intake, full exhaust, and tune. Not after a full aftermarket ecu, maybe a piggyback or remapped std ecu. This appears to get around an extra 70-80kw at the wheels, and approx. 110Nm torque which will be plenty for me. For these mods the qoute was just under 11K.

Most tuners are dabbling in different makes, so hopeing someone on here knows a non-euro bunch that can mod the 335.

what model 335?

i'm guessing you're talking post 07?

you could get the exhaust, FMIC piping etc fabricated and save a few dollars... the best bet is to go into your respective state's section on here, find out about tuners and just call them one by one

my mate installed their chip, filter, and boost lines, on his 335i twin turbo 08/09?

all up around 1k if i recall.

great results, no tune, no dyno, no mods.

Tony,

Is this what Ben's 335i have in when he took me for a spin?

Cheers

Grant

p.s. time for me to save up a lot to get one of these!

ive had a few through, i will chase up the graphs. From memory it cost them around $2000 for a "tune" and we did before and after and the only change was the boost

Be wary though as most shops here just load in a generic german map which is usually just a boost cut speed cut and boost increase (for $2k),

i had one M3 come in and lose 29rwkw, from 239 down to 210rwkw (and 30nm) with the so called leader in BMW performance's flash tune (see attached)

[Count Grantleyish]

Trent,

What model M3 is it on the graph, E36 or E46 or E92?

Interesting that they lose some power from a flash tune.

haha yep, thats the one. you can appreciate how impressed i was when i drove it. the power just kept pouring on like there was no end to it.

shame about the open wheeling diff though.

yeah that is the boost chip. Pretty sure the last guy who came in upgraded the diff to a better ratio and lsd

God i love 335i's

M3 FTW sorry

[PM-R33]

I'd be happy with the 335i and 100k in my pocket. Then spend 5k on the 335i and smoke the M3

Yes, I was simply blown away with how hard this thing goes, I told Ben that it's quicker than 270rwkw GTR I test drove, yes shame the diff is open, is it fitted with LSD now?

no he didnt fit an lsd. apparently to replace the diff was some stupid amount of dollars. he sold it now anyway and bought a sedate 2L supercharged merc. really nice car. not a powerhouse, but good for cruising etc.

[PM-R33]

Yeah the diff replacements can get quite costly. A few companies in the states make some good upgrades with the diff. I've been following the development of the 335i parts from the US forums for some time now. I definetely would like to get one in a few years time once im settled in career wise and the prices go down a bit.
