Do you remove this every 2 years for SMOG cert in CA? As that thing is clearly not CARB legal in CA, what do you fellows running F/I do when it comes time to smog cert the cars?
The Signature Motoring performance intake kit is only $170 and adds up to 9HP in the E46 323/325/328 and up to 13.9HP in the 330. That's about $17/per extra HP... A good value for the extra oomph if you're not budgeted for a supercharger...
I have a 2002 E46 M3 SMG and the exhaust sounds raspy. I like it. The car is so fun stock I wouldnt mess with forced induction, but I'd love to buy some carbon fiber parts to lighten it up!
i cant tell if you have it, but you should slap on a 3.91 differential. that paired with the supercharger you have will make your car blow the doors off of just about anything on the road.
u cant find one brand new but like new 20-35k if you pay anymore than 35k ur getting robbed these are fast cars thats why there expensive not only that there luxurious my e39 m5 ipayed 24k with the paint interior and DInan kit its 48k check ym vid for it
Nothing wrong with the "tail pipe" it is the standard tin rattle that comes with an M3 and to belive it or not they actually engineered the exhaust to make this tin sound...don't know why, they thought it was a good idea, but it sounds like it is going to break!!! The standard car is heavy and very pricey for what preformance it gives, but handling is idot proof and for a 4 seater car it will kill most american cars on the car track on bends and above all it a BMW!!!
can someone help me out?? ppl think i have a turbo in my car,,but rlly i dont..i drive a 328i 1998..im 16..like when i race ppl they say its not stock and shit..i just laugh..but they say it makes the BOV sound...u think its just the intake? bone stock car btw..
Is that an automatic? and no offense but its kinda slow with the SC and all. might wanna think about getting it tuned a little better. but sexy ass car anyway.
...Sure...You Drive a Porsche GT2 or something like that. Dude a Stock M3 is pretty fast, a supercharged one can do the 0-60 in around 4 seconds. But sure its "kinda slow"...compared to a Veyron Maybe....
not auto, its called SMG. (Sequential Manual Gearbox) its a clutchless manual. you can shift with the paddles or shift using the stick on the center console.
Turbos can provide max boost quicker than centrifugal superchargers...especially if sized correctly. Most of you are comparing turbos to screw type blowers.
not with the turbo lag , btw principal advantage of a supercharger it you have boost pratically instant by is pulley driving , instead of a turbo they have to spin around 40,000rpm before gaining a little boost and it have to spin more than 90,000rpm to reach top boost :P
and one thing thing you ,probrably or not XD, dont know in centrifugal supercharger you have a mounted gear box to make the turbine spin really more faster than the engine rev to have a boost (if that was not there you will never get enuff boost)so it like a turbo but not with the capacity of turbo that can do
any supercharger on an average sized 6 cylinder will be laggier than a turbo that will support the same power.
This is simply because superchargers make power in the same area that the NA engine does. Six cylinders (and 4 cylinders) don't really make much power until about halfway through the rpm band.
But saying one is less laggy than the other is a bit biased. For this application a mid sized gt30 garrett would probably make more power and have way more torque, from lower in the rpm band.
um... no the S54 as a BMW M engine, it has a very flat Tq curve, developing 262 at 1500 and maintaining it through thr RPM band. SCed is much more responsive than a Ted S54. A T is always going to be more total power, but the same PSI SC and T, the SC will be quicker off the line and at initial pulls. There isnt much difference in a T and a SC for this engine, unless you add methanol injection.
i don't agree. i've driven and e46 technik stage 1 M3 and the boost is pulling from the mid 2ks all the way up. the dyno reflected it at a consistent 240~ 270wtqs from 3,000-7,500. course this was with an ASA blower maxing out at only 6psi
i love everything about the car except the paddle shifters, i never drove with those but it seems like it takes away from the driving. i have a 2000 328i with an ESS S/C, wouldnt drive it any other way. nice car man. i also have it chipped, you should look into that...big difference. good luck!
dont get me wrong i love superchargers but why sacrifice power to make more power....i mean turbo just used a recirculated exhaust gas to spin a turbine...no wasted power there. but still i love the agressive whines on superchargers especially on kenne bell cobra
since there is no physical clutch pedal to push how would you put the smg2 on that car in neutral? and whats the supercharger hes using anyone know?

For those of you who think there is something wrong with the exhaust, the exhaust is actually fine.
The rasp you are hearing in the exhaust note is a unique signature of the E46 M3 due to the cat situated near the exhaust manifold.
You can purchase a rasp terminator pipe from aftermarket.

That is a crock of shit.
Superchargers dont suffer from lag at all. That is why some people prefer them over turbochargers.
In fact, the bigger the turbocharger you go, the more power it saps in the lower RPM range.
