Thank you to everyone for your comments. I have since returned this car as a lease and my new car is a 2011 Cadillac CTS-V. Ill post that dyno run soon :)
Im an audi fan personally (I have an '04 S4 4.2L V8 yada yada) but I have to give it to BMW with the 135i and what the BMW fans are doing with them. The I6TT motor is amazing. If i didnt have to have AWD (Quattro FTW!) where I live I'd definitely get one of these 135i. Nice car sir. ///German Muscle!!
I just did my 135i with a stage 2 Dinan chip upgrade! I love it!
The dealer told me I didn't really need the Cone filter! I was thinking about just replacing the air filter OEM with direct K&N replacement! I am worried about having a loud car! Dinan Stage 2 claims 384hp with 424lbs/ft torque! a bit expensive but i kept my warranty! So if anything happens, I 'll tell them to fix it!
they have to be, dinan lists their stage 1 flash at 366hp and 379 lb torque to the crank on their website. sooo im assuming hes listing it as to the wheels.
Your description says you have a BMW intake. When I asked, BMW said they did not make a performance intake for the 135i only for 128i, which is odd. Not even Dinan is making one. Rizz Racing makes a kid but I want to stick with a BMW Perfomance and Dinan (have stage 2 ECU). Please advise.
actually its more than 25, cuz bhp isn't the wheel hp, whp was about 280, so hes gettin a good 45 hp. plus with the dinan tune, boost tappers off so the hp could shoot up nearing redline, but they have the boost tapper instead
Motortrend got 4.7 0-60mph and 13.3 1/4 mile @ 106. Which is as fast, if not faster than the previous E46 M3 Motortrend test which ran 0-60mph in 4.8 and the 1/4 mile in 13.3 @ 108 . . .
NICE, you plan on doing any T-Hill days in this? I am pretty set on getting one based on everything I've read... way more low-key than the EVO... refinement!
