| For the exhaust, i got my system from Wayne at southport exhaust. good $ and nice sound. bolt in aplication aswell. or order a system over the net, like remus etc but big $ there..... The intake, depends how far you want to go with it. KnN make replacement panel filter that give a slight increase in flow and they also make replacement airbox/pod filter housings for most cars. I have a KnN panel filter in the E36 M3 and it does go a little better but i will be building my own intake when i get the car back from Eurotec at Burleigh. I have built some custom parts for other cars so ill give this a go and let you know how it works out if you like? Chad. |

| Take care of the air flow first, then later emphasize more with the chip.

am assuming this product either swirls the air in the intake to aparrently speed it up to get more in the cylinders - in which case it would be totally negated by having an intake manifold which stops the air from swirling. or its something that goes in ur intake thats supposed to act as a positive displacement type pump/compressor. turbos take alot or kws of power to work. its the excess heat from combustion that is utilised to spin the compressor blades via the impellor wheel. ur cars electrical system is not powerful enough to do this and any minimal gains are evened out by the loss of power through running the device. so yeah, it might be an expensive noise maker. its a 325, its not going to get anywhere fast. ive got an exhaust and gruppe m intake on my 99 328i and whilst it sounds a bit better its definately no race car.

| "The electric turbo generates 250CFM of forced air into your intake" hahah so at WOT it would be a restriction since most engines flow more than that anyway. its 1 expensive fan.
