need more hp for the 330i

I know this is a less looked over car, but I'm interested in tuning the 330i up to 300hp does anyone know what would be involved in this?

Something that you'd find in your wildest dream or something with a 335 badge on it.

It's really hard to make good power from N/A cars so I think you're out of luck..of course unless you go F/I, heh.

Check Active Autoweks or Dinan

Its going to be hard to pull any real significant hp. Enjoy your ride, trust me, my 335i feels slow, you would get used to the power and always want more.

+1 Shift to 6th by 30mph. Problem solved -- anemic acceleration but lots of mpg.
