i would just like the use-ability of being able to tune it yourself, as opposed to a procede where its just plug in and go. a custom tune on a dyno by a reputable tuner is always better than an off-the-shelf tune.

if you're a warranty person, you should probably get the dinan. The processor won't be covered by any warranty. The oil cooler is standard on the 135i btw.

What type of intake? Do you have pics?

boostin · 03-20-2008, 12:09 PM

speaking of H&R springs, they have two sets for the 135i. H&R sport springs, and H&R super sport springs. the first lowers it 1.4f/1.3r and that seems normal, but the super sports are 2.2f/1.6r - does this seem right? Thats an extreme drop; however with a set of 19's the 135i would look fantastic with an extreme drop.

I'm not sure about 19". You will have to choose very well the wheel to prevent rubbing issues. I prefer a 19" with a agressive offset and a slight drop, that a extreme drop with the wheel too must inside of the fenders. And the extreme drop is also less friendly for the oem shocks.

That is a common misconception about warranties. Dinan's products are covered by their warranty, not BMW's.

gotcha. sadu77, dinan has a dinan warranty not a bmw warranty, but neither does AA so either way you're losing it. comes down to money:horsepower ratio now.

That is correct. i bought the sports as the super sports are way too low for every day use. Kiss your front bumper goodbye with those bad boys.
