325i SMF conversion

DJ_e91 · 06-28-2016, 02:23 AM

Hi Guys

I am aware of the pros and cons of SMF conversions as I did one on my last car, 350z.

I am looking to do the conversion anyway, but can't find any kits anywhere after hours and hours of searching.

Does anyone know where I could get a kit? Or even if the old e46 kit would fit my pre lci car?

Thanks

Approach with care! According to my BMW specialist, dispensing with the DMF can put undue strain on the crankshaft and failures are not unknown apparently...

Thanks for he info.

I read that a lot of people don't recomend it, but the difference it made to my last car was well worth the risk imo.

Does anyone know where I could get one from?

My DMF is worn out and I don't want to buy another.

Thanks
