Detailed my 320d M
Hope you all like, Plan to get it remaped soon and tint the rear windows Would also like to change for a twin exit exhaust like the 330d but no idea were to get one.
Need to detail the outside but ran out of time |

In fact, remap, CDV delete and clutch stop. This car is actually alot of fun to hoon around town now, and I've had an M3 and remapped 535d. The exhaust is a must, I pretty much bought mine based on the rear exhaust having been converted to 335 dual exit |

I am not sure if mine is an OEM 335 back or custom - my tail pipes are chunkier than the OEM 335d so I'm unsure |

Or speak to a breaker and get the necessary OEM exhaust parts and diffuser from a 330?

Hey lovely ride !
If you wanna tint the windows, dont tint just the rears - looks not so good. Tint 35% all round. If you are thinking about remap - hmmmm its better to but tuning box - any time you can take it off the engine when going for MOT or selling the car and just sell the tuning box and get your money back. Once remap is done £300 will stay with the car and there might be problems on the MOT or when selling the car... The perfect exhaust for 320d is from BCS - guys in St Helens - £200 fitted and looks awesome - have had it for a year now !

Makes my engine bay look shabby... After I cleaned it!
Have you polished your tailpipe up? Hate my stock 320d, thinking of taking some steel wool to it in an attempt to shine it up! |

I don't want to get grief from the police so will just tint the rears, Want a factory look. Will be getting a remap as the tunning boxes worry me and i can't see how the MOT is a problem |

Why would tuning box worry you ? Remap would worry me lol. Tuning box is the best choice - you can take it off the car in 5-10 mins and no problems at all with MOT or sale of the car. The remap will be there forever... Hey, beauty she is Thanks, yes we both have the same beatiful exhausts Regards, Mat.

A good remap (and there are lots of good ones) is better than any tuning box - most tuning boxes only increase fuel pressure - its not the best way to make more power. The reasons why a remap is better has been done to death, suffice to say the only reason to get a tuning box is if you have warranty and you don't want BMW knowing you have tinkered with the car or for whatever reason, you don't want a permanent change. Even tuning box manufacturers will tell you that a remap is the better option in terms of power/drive-ability. |
