I had a similar idea but I had a tax rebate and built a 528bhp monster that looked like a nice 325i on cool wheels. There is nothing like the face of an evo 8 driver looking for an excuse for being left in a cloud of tyre smoke
Thought about doing this to my '04 ZHP 330i but here in Cali I'm not sure I want to deal with the whole CARB legality thing so I don't think I really should :(
I just bought the same kit for my 5 spd 330i. Do you mind shedding some light on how the ccv hoses are rerouted to the sc intake? The instructions from vf might as well have been for a Camaro, as vague and undetailed the description is.
Is it a v3? I have some detailed pics I can share. If you have Facebook, lookup the group e46 owners and send me a PM (I'm the only admin). I can forward you over everything I have.
Oh wow really? I was blocked from that group a while ago. Idk if there was another admin then. I posted funny things sometimes and was never disrespectful to anyone and someone messaged me telling "you post some dumb shit" then I was kicked from the group. I mean, I've owned four e46's if anyone should've been in that group it should've been me lol but i actually just winged the install and got everything done. The kit just didn't have the belt in it. So I'll be looking at parts stores for a belt that fits.
But basically, I couldn't message you on there even if I wanted to because I'm blocked and can't find the group. I'm in the group e46 owners club now. A more respectful bunch, but definitely not as good of a group
My car is at 92k. I wanna boost it, will my mileage hold me back since the motor is broken in already ? Also I have a 325Ci. & do I have to use their CAI that comes in the kit. No way I can use a SRI?
I'm pretty good at DIYs and do 95% of my car work. If you're comfortable with wrenching, this job in particular is pretty easy. The most challenging part was removing the old injectors (they were a pain to pull out after 12 years).
Well you converted that wrong. 230 crank to 340 crank and 190 WHEEL to 300 WHEEL. Over 100hp gain from something I got used for less than 2k and that's also basically plug and play.

vtecboi18 I believe this would be "stage 1"

Yea not sure about Cali laws but Mass is pretty strict and I passed no problem each time I went for inspection.
@@tuned_auto Nice lol, I think it’s a California thing.. needs to have a nice shiny “CARB legal” sticker on it or it they won’t pass it

@@chadengles2104 I removed the ban so you should be able to find me
where did you connect the f connector that used to go in the intake boot
that goes to the brake booster
I used a T connector and combined all of the lines together and then hooked that up to the port on the back of the intake.
My car is at 92k. I wanna boost it, will my mileage hold me back since the motor is broken in already ? Also I have a 325Ci. & do I have to use their CAI that comes in the kit. No way I can use a SRI?
I did mine at 147k lol. Drove it till 172k and sold it. Still going strong.
@@tuned_auto My car is at 229K lolol but still going stupid strong, you think it would hold?
Will this fit a 325ci? Wit some minor modifications
They make this kit for the 325i
Hello!!! where did you buy this supercharged kit?
A member in my Facebook group was selling it used.
Is this easy to do? I want to supercharge my 2003 530i
I'm pretty good at DIYs and do 95% of my car work. If you're comfortable with wrenching, this job in particular is pretty easy. The most challenging part was removing the old injectors (they were a pain to pull out after 12 years).
how did you get the headlight back on?
I had to modify the headlight so I could relocate the ballast. Once I did that, it slid in like normal
@@tuned_auto so you took the ballast off the headlight and where did you relocate it to?
Hi dear friend would you like to tell what type of intake hose tube you use for supercharger is it facotory air intake hose or something different
I got it from VF
how fast, Torque and HP
Laziest 302 whp and I think it was 265 ft/lbs
nice!
Cost?
Joshua Trible this one was used so it only cost me 1850$. Finding a used unit is the best considering a new one is close to 5k.
Where do you search for a used one?? Lol
Can some one explain me what means zhp? Is it only american thing?
Yea it's an American thing. ZHP was code for the BMW performance package.
Does it have an intercooler?
gentilomul misogin no
this was just a "plug and play"? you didn't change any internals in the engine?
Deangelo dove no engine modifications :) so correct
That kits like 5 grand, so you went from 230hp to 340, actually around 300 at the wheels so for. 5 to 6 grand you only got 70hp
Well you converted that wrong. 230 crank to 340 crank and 190 WHEEL to 300 WHEEL. Over 100hp gain from something I got used for less than 2k and that's also basically plug and play.
@@tuned_auto oh ok, well in this case u got lucky finding a used unit, me i would've gone w the cx racing kit
