[QUOTE="kevster30, post: 46158, member: 10"] Here's a list to start you off: 1. Electric fan - use the one from an e36 as it is plug and play(some wiring required though) to replace your fan clutch to reduce the mechanical load on your engine. Cost: RM 250 for the electric fan from chop shop and RM 150 for the wiring. 2. Lighten your flywheel - again to reduce the load on your engine. Remove 500gms frm you flywheel, remove more and you will lose torque. 3. Upgrade your injectors: Go to the chop shop and look for the injectors from an E34 520i 24valve. Better flow rate and finer spray pattern. Expect to pay RM 150-200. Plug and play, just need to retune your CO to 1.5. 4. Performance chip: this will truly release those hidden horses in your M40 block. 5. Piggy back ECU: one up from the chip as you will have full variable control over your fuel map and ingnition timing. 6. MAF conversion:Mass Air Flow meter, to replace you AFM(air flow meter), this is to be done with no.5 as you need the piggyback ECU to decode the signals from the MAF to your existing ECU. 7. Forced induction: the holy grail.......supercharge or turbocharge your M40 and give the six-potters a run for their money! 8. BUY! BUY! BUY! BUY! BUY! BUY! BUY! BUY! BUY! BUY! BUY! [i]*Note: Steps 1, 2, & 3 will only improve the drivability of your ride but will not dramatically improve your performance.*[/i] Over to the other sifus for more poison..............hehehehehehe [/QUOTE]
