I have little doubt I'm currently as fast as a 335i. Should be able to experiment with that this week.

See my posts in the "No 128i love thread".
There is probably 2-3 listed I am being conservative, that is why I said minimum gains for Tune + Disa

MINIMUM gains from DISA/tune should be 130i power-- aka +30 hp.
Pretty sure evolve gets some gains over stock, too

On the many local dyno days I have seen, 130s have made 40hp less than stock 135/335s. |

Stock is 96-97mph, so I doubt it will be much of a struggle...

335i is 190lbs heavier than the 135i.

100% agreed! I have zero desire for turbo power.

I'd just be satisfied with the n52 being opened up to remove any factory restrictions without going to Race DME/ECU. The finishing touch later on, would be replace the coil packs with Okada project ones to refine it even more.

Great thread stig! Thank you. What are your thoughts on what headers, an evolve tune and the like would do to our lower compression n51 engined cars?

I dont know if Evolve is best for n51. They never encountered the engine as far as i know.
Maybe an off-road AA tune for Headers & n51 is a more realistic path that would yield as high as 30-40hp

Even in history no FI engines stand out as memorable. NA engines like the S14, LS7, S54, S85, S70/2 and others will be landmarks for enthusiasts for years to come. The character can't be matched. Quote:
It's companies like Evolve that made my short BRZ ownership so painful. There was nothing like them.

Same here the Evolve team is personal, hands on and is willing to achieve customer satisfaction.

Man, you guys are making me really jealous. I won't be able to afford all the go fast parts until the end of the summer, and thats assuming i'm brave enough to take on the install myself. Would anyone be down for an install party?

Tune to stock 135i you might keep up, tune to tune you will get destroyed. Nice mod though, I had planned on doing this to my 525xi but ended up trading it for my 135i. I also have a N52 X3 3.0si, I wonder what headers and a tune would do for that!

WOW! Seriously...what a fun read.
The projects you are working on and achievements made are seriously making the 128i one of the most attractive BMWs to me right now..... Yet again, Evolve, Supersprint, yourself, and the good guys helping you out raise the bar over and over again!! 130is?.....why not 130evolvesupersprint HAHAHAHA...not sure if it really follows the "es" monicker of the old E30s though Keep up the great work man. I can't wait to see the dyno results with Evolve in the future!

I do feel like I have the dream team backing me up most of the time, it's pretty excellent. Not sure where I would get the "e" from.
