Initial Shark Impressions (E46 330Ci)
Okay, I'm very pleased. :thumbup: :thumbup:
As soon as I pulled onto the street, I could feel a noticable power increase, which actually surprised me. I guess it could be my imagination, but I really wasn't expecting it to be so noticable. Mind you, it's not an enormous change (and I do have a CAI). But I felt something right away. Nice. Throttle response is much improved. Very linear now. Better response time. This was what I wanted most, and I'm satisfied. Of course, the 7k redline is great. With the 330's silly ratio of 2.93, I can now hit 70mph in second gear. Boy does the engine sound sweet between 6000-7000 rpms! :D I just took a short test drive on back roads, so I couldn't test the removal of the governer's cap. These are just my initial responses. We'll see if my enthusiasm dies down over the next few days/weeks, or if it increases. :twisted: |
didja order yours through Turner or Josh at EuroSport?
|
I got it from Turner.
After driving in to work today, I can definitely say acceleration is improved. Hopefully a few other people can drive my car soon so we can hear their impressions as well. |
