I recently got a 1995 318is. And everyday I look at it I just fall more and more in love with it. And can't wait until I can start modding mine. Hopefully one day I'll have the chance to do an ls6 swap. Or a 13b 3 rotor swap.
It is not meaningless as more people actually care more about what their car is really putting on the road. The reason why BMW or any other car makers rather put HP than RWHP is simply for marketing reason. Non-car people rather see larger HP number than seeing a smaller RWHP number. also 189HP BMW spec is from many years ago. Over the year you drive a car, the engine will lose power so that claim "189HP" is no longer relevant now that the car is 18 year old.
There is a difference between HP and RWHP. Put it this way: HP is what the engine makes at crank, but when you drive, the power goes through the gearbox, drive shaft, differential, then to the wheels. Going through all of that will certainly decrease the power you are getting at the wheel and usually it varies from 15%-20% power loss (RWHP). Assuming that is true, since my car makes 175 RWHP, it should makes around 206 - 219HP at crank which is almost 30HP more than BMW spec. Hope that helps
im going to get an exhaust done in a week and i want to copy this exhaust exactly. i already have headers and piping, i just need to know what magnaflow muffler you are running. i will also be running a tms chip, but with a homemade cai (spectre air filter and custom heat shield)
I like the clever.."Wind Replication" at the front of the car. Smart. I love the sound of your Flowmaster. Can you provide a part # and ball park price? I have a convertible 95 325i and just replaced the head,.... old one was cracked in 3 spots. Looking to upgrade the exhaust

what? just be a real BMW owner and swap a M50 into it or s50b30/32 in it and be happy. buy a Miata for swaps
That was so extreme and awesome! I just wish my E36 was 2 door haha

Can't wait to tune my m52 vanos,
Sounds great,👍🏻
nice sound. is it vanos?, how high have you set the rev limiter? and do you have cats or not?
+AlexOffTheDome It is Vanos. I don't remember the rev limiter and the car had cats
it's when you hit the redline. It kinda blips out the throttle.

Kosei K1

Gibt es denn BMW 325is auch in Deutschland??!!
Ja, nennt sich 325i Coupe. das S ist lediglich die Coupe Version des 3ers in den USA, nicht so wie mit den 318i und 318is Versionen.
