I have a 05 S40 T5 AWD, what upgrade gave you the most puch and how far did you drop her, I am getting ready to get a coil over kit and upgrade a bit, I miss the punch of my GTI
it has around 285 hp at the crank and over 300 tq at the crank so not too bad for a little car. The powerband in this car is amazing such low to mid end power. It feels so much more planted with the upgraded suspension and sway bar. I like the way the BMW steering is but the 325i is underpowered.
This car seems pretty chill. I read some comparison article on small awd sedans, and the volvo came in last...not because it was flawed - just had a disconnected driver feel in comparison to 325ix, g35x, legacy gt, etc.
Anyway, I saw that you upgraded your suspension components - does it feel more planted? do you think it can hang with the aforementioned vehicles?
