my e36 328is
Hi! I recently bought my 328is and i was looking to upgrade the car...
I was just wondering since i really dont know all that much about this stuff, what everyone else would do for mods to this car..
I have carbon fibre cai, shark injector chip, and tuner pulleys..
Eventually i would like to get an active autowerke supercharger or a turbo whichever would be best. but i would like to get the smaller mods out of the way first..
I was thinking about getting eisenmann race exhaust, lsd although i dont know which ratio or whatever to get, and a dinan high flow throttle body..
I have about $10,000 to use up can anyone help? Thanks!

No no no! Do not go the route of the m50 manifold swap! All it does is take away mid range torque in exchange for top end HP. Which is of the most usein daily driving? Torque when you accelerate regularly or a bit more speed at WOT? Think over what you're most likely to usefrom day to day. This is one of the most blown out proportion mods for these cars.
I know I'm new on this forum, but hardly new to E36s.

Yes but he can also put in the m3 cams, which will make up for the lost mid end tourqe.... also they arent that expensive as they used to be.. and there are many people who can guide you along the way.

Hi sorry I havent been on in a while, I paid 11 500 for it at the time and put the sound system $4800 and also some new Toyo T1r's
Havent done much else to it since, I picked up a new m3 Dinan s3 instead of putting all that money into this car.
It is for sale if anyone is interested, I have it listed in classifieds.
$9,999 everything included. With the rims, tires, and sound system taken into consideration that leaves it a pretty cheap car. Also accepting offers without the speakers. Car has 73000 miles.
