In doing some cruising around at the E90 part of the forum I stumbled into the "Tuners Wars". Some interesting soap opera like reading and recent happenings over there. To cut to the chase getting BIG hp and tq gains in the 335i has become a lot less expensive. The
Juice Box kit offers more or less Vishnu V2 performance for $379!
+35-45 rwhp and +45-60 rwtq
And... if you are willing to run race gas ... hold on...
+65 rwhp, +98 rwtq
Price, $478.
This is already a big win for the 335i in the great M3 vs. 335i debate. If they just did not weld in that damn crippling differential...
I'm still very much in favor of the high reving concept, the fantastic V8 in the M3, the overall package including EDC and soon to come M-DCT but the price to performance gap is closing at these prices.
