Large and small Ours is the small 188mm one So the links in my post mention the different models available by that vendor Next the final drive ratio like 3.23 doesn't mean the LSD is 3.23 it means that the gear inside the pumpkin assembly So those that upgrade the ratio usually get a complete pumpkin With LSD installed with a new ratio from certain vendors. Those that do only LSD use their own pumkin and open it to swap out the open differential for LSD

For those guys running euro airbox's:
Ecs lists the mfr p/n as 7552437 which realoem shows only off the e9x chassis. But why not order p/n 7555287 which is off the e8x and e9x chassis? |

your first one seems to be e90 330i spec, the other is the one found everywhere n52 and maybe n53 The only issue may be active steering but i think it already accommodates that Check realoem, a long as N52 engine is used you are okay

EDIT: Found some airbox's from an overseas warehouse. Seems the 7552437 is listed from a N52B30A and the 7555287 is listed from a N52B25A. Either way it's going on my N51. $60 price difference. Last edited by GnarlyMarley; 09-04-2014 at 10:34 PM.. |

Shipping and import tax should be probably $70 in total. Goodluck!
Under the e90 in the first link there is a box for under 140 usd

I think people think it looks better. And the filter is 2% easier to change.

I agree easier filter change, looks nice, more air volume inside box for engine to breathe.
If one gets used Euro-airbox - One can easily add some holes to make a Afe or Simota. The silicone hose also makes this close to AFE

Not that you will notice with any exhaust work.

Installed a performance wheel today. A buddy of mine gave me a good deal on this and a v2 electronic one, but he didn't have any of the eletronic install stuff so i don't know if it's even usable. Regardless this one is awesome and i'm a sucker for flat bottom steering wheels.
It feels 1000% better than the non sport original wheel.

Sweet, a 128i discussion thread. Just recently got a blue 2010 128i, drives beautiful. It's stock but I eventually want to get a cold air intake, exhaust, and front lip and possibly a spoiler. I don't want to spend too much for the cosmetic looks. I guess I will see what's out there.

Je128i... Welcome to the club. So is it an M-Sport? Also, the best engine mod you can do to start is the 3-Stage Manifold, which begins the process of turning your car into a 130i. Will add the most horsepower for the money. ST|g has a great article on the parts you need and how to do it. I am still saving my pennies, but I expect to install in the spring.
