Review - PROcede 335i Coupe Automatic 0-60 Videos

Vishnu (Shiv--the man) installed a PROcede into my 335i on Saturday. On Sunday, I took the ride for a high speed run through some streets near to where I live. I hit the DTC button so that DTC was lighted. I have a 335i coupe automatic. Temp was about 56 degrees. I have about 1,000 miles on my car. 93 octane gas. I tried a 0-60, but there was traffic that screwed up my concentration and I got some tire slippage that likely screwed up my time, but it felt about 4.6-4.7. There are two videos.





Let me tell ya...if any of you are hesitant to get the PROcede, you should just do it. The difference is DRAMATIC. The torque is unreal and consistent up to 120 (which is as fast as I've taken it since the PROcede was installed). The shifting is smoothed out and the boost smacks you into the back of your seat. The PROcede turned my 335i into a super car sleeper. There is very little out there that will walk this baby now...it feels too good to put into words so either ride in a 335i with PROcede or just get it installed.

Also, Shiv is a mad genius...he makes the installation look easy...took him only like 15-20 minutes after removing all the covers. If you can get to a Vishnu meet where Shiv is doing the tuning and installation, I recommend it. You get to see the before and after dyno and get to meet Shiv and his crew. So, hurry up and arrange to hook up at a Vishnu PROcede install--it is well worth it, and who knows how long Shiv will be able to keep up his pace (especially since he is tuning Porsches now and that will have to eat up some time).

After the install, my wife even said the difference is dramatic. Its not just the extra horse power and torque boost that plants you to the seat, or the extra .2-.4 you shave off the 0-60, but the entire throttle map is smoothed out so your car's engine actually runs better and accelerates smoother, running through the gears when you are gunning it. You also will notice improvement when you are just driving easily. I can't understand why BMW doesn't do this sort of thing in the first place.

So, dollar per result, you cannot beat the PROcede. I HIGHLY recommend it. Those other copy cats out there ain't close.

I will be posting some pics and movies of the installation and dynoing at dyno4mance in Calhoun, GA. Shiv and his crew were great. Andrew and the guys at dyno4mance were similary great.

actually with PROcede and good rubber, 4.4 is very realistic

Check out the reviews of the car. Reputable reviews show 4.8 and 4.9 0-60 times, stock.

lol i know that... thats what i said that is hes getting .4 faster then that would be 4.4 in 0-60 considering we all know the 335 does it in 4.8 stock... 4.4 is gunna be really hard with procede alone, even with good traction tires... we might only see that with an LSD and the tires

Well, .2-.4, whose counting? The enhancement is still sick....I feel confident I was running about a 4.7-.6 0-60 and that was with slippage. I would love to see an automatic 335 Procede with LSD and good tires (possibly an exhaust mod) and it would not surpise me that it runs 4.4-4.5 0-60.

Not sure man, but call Vishnu and they can tell you. Shiv said that they are now ready to mass produce and will have product to ship shortly.

Nice videos; thank you for sharing...sounds and looks about right! FWIW -- I just did a couple more timed runs today in my XEDE-equipped 335i and got 4.58 sec. 0-60mph and 13.12 sec. 1/4 mi. @ 106.4mph...still waiting for my PROcede...looking forward to it! My suggestion to you (if you haven't already done so) is to get new wheels and bigger, wider, stickier tires like the Michelin PS2s...your traction and your times will improve immensely!!! :rocks:

Dude that was beautiful sounded amazing. So do you get kicked back in your seat when u gun it? Plus when you use the Manual mode and change gears correctly does it kick you back?
