328i ecu upgrade

In reference to the 328i, this is what I got from them:

Hello,



We are actually already offering the upgrades for those models. It’s just that our web guy is very slow.

Hopefully, he will get to those soon listed.



Regards,



Autothority Techsupport

I've been eying the Upsolute tunning. 400 bucks and they tune to the mods you have on your car. Also, like a 15hp increase, more if you have an intake and exhaust.There is a spot in Orange County that did it.

Has Upsolute provided any dynos? I'm yet to hear any realworld positive reviews.

Whats the point in trying to get power out of our cars?

Trade for a 335i and call it a day we won't make as much power as them
and if we do, not even close to as efficient. Not worth it

i personally think i'd be cool to have an N/A 328 that made if not as much, close to the power of a 335

Everyone and their mom has a 335.

Why not have something one of a kind?

My thoughts at least.

At what cost. It would be cheaper to sell and buy 335i anyways.
And you could still have a warranty with the 335i and be faster.

The only way we would be close to the 335i and be n/a is to buy the
stroker kit that is out for our cars

I don't understand the whole "just buy a 335" talk. Selling an old car and buying a new one is an easy and cheap process? Hell no. Some of us just want a little kick for our engines, not the power that 335 makes. Spend like 20g's in trade or like $800 for a chip and intake when you only need little increase?

Well I like my warranty so I am not messing with my motor at all

These models are really slow anyways. At least mine is. A 335i
is not quick at all, when I test drove it I was not impressed at all. I
rode in my friends with a piggyback and exhaust, still not that impressive.
I guess I am a thrill seeker?

I'm more of a purist - that's why I went with the NA engine. Plus, over the long run (yes, I actually keep my cars about 8 years and don't sell them every 2 - 4 years) I'll have less maintenance to perform because I don't have to do turbo maintenance.

i agree... i'm looking for NA performance as well which is why it'd be cool to get a reflash and hopefully a better intake manifold to bump the power up into the 260-270hp range
