Mods For Bmw 3-series

Recommended Posts

Well one of my close pals bought an 18- BMW 518i many years ago. He did not know it but that car had an aftermarket turbo fitted. It also had stiffer suspension.

And it used to fly. Standard output was 118bhp and the turbo pumped it upto 170 he found out later from the first owner who did the conversion.

Sadly the turbo blew something and it was smoking like a coal train and he decided to remove it. Needless to say the car felt extremely slow after that. I remember it was a Garrett.

A few years later after having lots of trouble with it he sold it.

There used to be a guy who did turbo installation for BMWs some time ago. Can't remember his name but it was an English sounding name.

I've seen a black E36 316i with a Turbo as well.

Yes no one imports mods for Euro cars. Coz there are too few I guess.

There is an agent for K&N, and he has filters for the BMW.
