MattD,

Nice write up, glad you enjoy the performance. What fuel were you using during the dyno ?

It's a scary thing to watch your car on the dyno for the first time. What with the fan and the engine noise it sounds incredibly loud. Evolve did the runs in 3rd when they did mine each time.

I think it's amazing that a £600 software tune can turn this little BM into an serious threat to some of its larger cousins.

Are you using the stock air intake ?

I aim to go back to Evolve with the new exhaust and some decent fuel this time to see what can be acheived.

You can never have enough power.

Nice meeting you Matt - glad you are happy with it. The 50-75 times are very impressive. We have had the 335i's/d's timed from 0-100mph before by BMWCar magazine so its good too see how effective it is in the midrange.

Forge are developing an intercooler for this 135i for us:

[u2b]<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/7dnE_jl0JDI&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/7dnE_jl0JDI&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>[/u2b]

We will also be adding some decatted downpipes( the car already has BMW Performance exhaust and every other part from the Performance catalogue! I cna recommend the suspension!) Simota Carbon Intake and Forge DV's. Should be good for 400 ++ BHP. Feature has already been agreed with BMWCar so you will see it in there soon.
