[QUOTE="leforte, post: 243821, member: 1943"] PLEASE BE INFORMED...a well developed kit would not require any more frequent visit to your mech other than the required routine BMW factory specified maintenance for all wear and tear parts. no headaches involved. Do your research well, prepare the required amount of cash of about +/-30k, acquire a proper well made supercharger kit for your designated engine with all the required parts and tuning from a REPUTABLE experience BMW force induction specialist (not any Ah kaw workshop here), FYI the tuning for the kit is of the most important here, a full software reflash is the best and highly recommended. A piggyback is ok provided its of a tried and tested factory supplied system. Trying your luck at the local tuners? DONT bother, unless you dont mind being the guinea pig. Bolting on the hardware is simple "sap sap sui" as someone put it, but tuning is a different ball game. most of the local mech/tuners here only have basic experience on tuning our cars. Here are some of the tuners where you can acquire your supercharger kits from:- euro based kits European Supercharger System from Norway. ALL their kits are EXTREMELY well made which includes everything from in-house customized DME tuning software, hardware and most of all top rated customer service. all ESS kits are well designed, researched and road tested for at least 50k kms or 2 years in all weather conditions for durability and performance.
