128i AA tune
Assuming the 128i has a 0-60 of 5.8 secs, what would that become after getting a stock 128i just the AA tune?
First post, sorry if I'm asking a question that has been answered elsewhere but i couldn't find it. |

It adds quite a bit of power if you add on the 3 stg intake manifold (that's what the 330i comes with, and N51 engines also have it stock). You might be able to knock half a second off?

Thank you for your extremely unnecessary answer. I'm not interested in buying a 135i or else I would have said 135i not 128i nor would i have been in the 128i section. Instead I asked a very specific question.
128i vs 128i w/AA tune that is all |

Anyone's answer would simply be just a guess. The AA Tune alone only adds a few hp. I don't expect more than .1s improvement. As others have mentioned, the AA tune along with the 3 stage intake manifold should add about 30hp at the crank and would improve acceleration in a measurable way. Maybe something like .3s, hard to say.

probably the only way to get a true result is to test in as close to identical conditions possible before and after the tune.
i did the AA tune in march, along with a k&n drop-in/charcoal delete and added aFe scoops. recently i upgraded to eurotek lm reps, 18x8.5/9.5 with 225/255 tires. each wheel/tire combo is several pounds lighter that the stock 17x7/7.5 sport pkg rims my car came with. i would be my acceleration is even greater with the other mods and new/lighter wheels. but its not a tire-burner. my nephew has a mazda 3 "speed" with upgraded software and new turbo. great in a straight line, but cant use that power to turn. i wanted a car that can turn, too! |

You're not going to get much with the AA flash...maybe 10-12 hp. It does remove the rev and top speed limits, and improve vanos performance, but you'll barely feel it. With the Stage 3 intake (and AA headers), it's a completely different story...you will want to take it to the redline on every shift...you'll go looking for 135's, LOL...

Depends on how good of a driver you are, traction and some luck .
One thing is for sure, the AA flash will make your car noticeably faster

It's broke, time to crush it and start over.
I would recommend getting an OBD2 tool that can read the codes. The codes will give you and the forum a better feel of what is wrong and how to fix it. If you bought it from a stealership, take it back and make them fix it or you will make sure to leave reviews about them.
