    good stuff and nice build seems like the manifold upgrade has been a major common upgrade recommended within the past few years i honestly dont remember much about performance upgrades for the n52 when i got mine years ago people would talk about, alot of 328s hit a certain milage they would give out and not even bmw knew the issues, but the issues have been flattened out and n52 is deemed reliable again with proper part maintence also i just noticed i watched your pink flamingo warehouse video before this from a couple months back didnt expect that

    I had my e92 328i with similar set up as yours. Euro-intake, 3-stage intake manifold, and exhaust; BPC in NC did my tune and I was getting 193 --> 224 whp and 187 --> 218 wtq. I definitely felt the increase of torque as a N52 is IMO very torque poor when stock. The price and effort to get this is definitely worth every penny for anyone who is interested.

    260whp is a bit of a stretch. You have done the only bolt ons people do on the N52...intake, 3 stage intake manifold, AA headers, and exhaust with secondary cat delete. With a AA tune, most you see is 240-250whp depending on conditions. So you are looking at 270-280hp at the crank. The only way to get 300whp on a N52 is with a supercharger and at that point, you might as well got a N54/N55 car.

    I am local to the Active Autowerks shop. They quoted me over $6k for tune including all exhaust and headers. Only promised a 20hp increase max with Dyno run . They wouldn't even take my$ . They told me I would be an unhappy customer and the platform isn't worth it. They sent me off with a cold air intake for a bit top end and noise increase.

  • @JDtimesten

    I know the N52 cars are never going to be like the N54, and I have a 335i and 325i. Thing is, the 325i is so tossable and amazingly confidence inspiring. I think it's reasonable to see the e90 N52 as a more sophisticated e36 M3 (US version), and that's not bad. The last honest NA straight six bimmer. I'm hoping to keep the 325i for as long as possible. The 335i will be gone in a couple years.

    The N52 328i can never build more horsepower by just installing the 3 stage intake manifold. Simply because the original DME software won't detect the DISA valves hence they still not working !
    Not talking about the more agressive software adopted to the 330i models.
