M3 performance question

Pressurizede36 · #1 (**permalink**) 11-24-2005, 09:33 AM

I was just wondering if anyone knows anything about the BMP racing individual throttle intake system. Also I was wondering if by installing the AA track pipe, BMP individual throttle intake system, long tube headers and high-flow muffler, would the US-spec 3.0M3 be on-par with Euro-spec 3.0M3?

Thanks

go to www.turnermotorsports.com, they have a package with cams,confortichip,intake/bigger injectors,etc. that will give your m3 about 295hp, more than the euro spec 3.0 your revlimiter will also be raised to 7100rpm.ive sean several m3's with this package and there fast as hell.

i believe the multi throttle intake will not work on us spec motors because the intake valves are too small.

The BMP intake is only made for the us spec engines.

I have been on many BMW boards over the years and I have NEVER EVER heard of somebody that has installed one. If they gave power equal to or better than the Euro motor you would see some around.

deepthroat,go into turner and on theleft side of the screen, there is catalog go click on the pic ur car its in there 57hp added to 95m3's so you would have at least 297hp on a us 3.0 m3.

You also need to install DTA and a custom headjob to get alot out of it.

But a US M3 will never become a Euro one

6 throttlebody's will fit a US M3 with a little work on it.

I've seen 325i's in Germany with Euro M3 throttlebody's on it pushing out more the 240bhp without cams or other engine mods.

Just DTA and 6 throttlebodys

, just as a 328i will never be either-just messing with you

and hopefully it won't, I want it to stay reliable

the ITB's really just give you more throttle response, and a different intake sound. and as said above without head mods you wont see any more hp. but if you're planning on going all out NA might as well. Me im going to a bike junkyard and going to make my own ITB setup.
