We will have it around early March or the end of Feb.
Pictures attached it.
The max hp will be 345hp depend on your car condition. We guarantee 50% hp up.
We suggest you do two times dyno test. First time test stcok then you will know the stock
hp. Second time atfer install our supercharger.
The MRP price is around USD$8500.and your price will be USD$5500.
What do you mean internal work?? (asked if internals would need to be changed)
We have two stages we can offer.
Stage 1 includes supercharger kit, stander, air filter and other accessories.
Stage 2 includes supercharger kit, stander, air filter,blow off,ecu, oil injection, intercooler and other accessories.

Im still in for a 328, 345 doesnt sound too bad to me.

The MRP will be USD$8500 but you will instaill by your self right
so we have a DIY price to you. It will be around USD$5500.

Arma Supercharger

nice work guys- but still some questions.
interesting that the kit is both priced the same but the gains are
a whole lot different from 325 to 328.
I take it that the 345 is to the wheel and stage 2 or 1?
5500$ for 345hp, that's fack'n good.

Craven where are the attached pics?
or are they same as OP>?

part of me is still skeptical...but not going knock it till i
hear it and see a road test.

Frankie,
The pics are the same as the first ones, so i didnt post.

Im assuming thats stage 2, and stage 1 is only on the 325 which is why the 328 can make more power? Just guessing..

Its a few months out so things might change too.

thanks man.

u know if Arma does pull this off or if they did pull it off.
this would be sick.
my question is how long would u run ur N52 engine once u supercharged it.
u wouldn't daily drive that chit.
i'll daily drive a 335 minus the fuel pump issues - without a tune.

this is goin be a fun thread.
i just want to see this SC in action...
+1 on Rosetta Stone.
maybe they have Rosetta Stone already - i 3/4 understood it.

Well I think if i remember correctly, the 325i in Europe can come in either a 3.0 liter or a 2.5 liter. And i believe the 2.5 liter is the most common. So they could be quoting the gains from the 2.5 liter engine assuming that we had a 2.5 in America.

Speaking completely out of my ass here, i dont see why the US 325i wouldnt make near the same power as the 330. Same displacement and near same components. Dont give up so fast! I'm sure something will work out

(And I just checked Wikipedia and yeah, the 325 in europe is a 2.5L)

arent people more skeptical about it actually running boost and overcoming the stock engine management?

Hi Jason

USD$5500 includes supercharger kit, stander, oil injection, blow off, ecu, intercooler, and other accessories.
It doesnot include header and exhaust. You do not have to tune. You just plug our ecu and play it.
So you car is 3.0L right?? 3.0L will be done early March or the end of Feb??
We guarantee 50%hp up
Let me know if you have any question.

looks like it's all plug and play, with a complete reprogram of the ecu. This is good, but I wonder what kind of boost they are running, and if they are using the stock fuel injectors, and what the duty cycle on them is. I'd be very wary about 345hp on this motor without very careful tuning. I wouldn't expect to slap this on a US California car and then dump in our crappy 91 octane.

hopefully, they tune it "safe". but I really don't see a "safe" tune fetching 115 more horsepower over stock. Not trying to be a buzzkill, but adding boost to a naturally aspirated engine is never a simple process when you do it right. though even if it was 70-80hp on a "safe" tune, I think that would make a lot of people happy.

also, I'm not sure which part a "stander" is, as I am not familiar with that term. And I really don't like foam filters, but that could be switched.
