check e90 post, n/a engine tuning... it's pretty popular among the 3-series owners. it seems like 325/328i guys see the most gains, 330i (same engine as the z4 3.0si) not so much the case. it's more throttle response than anything.
in that same section of the forum, there's a separate thread on Active Autowerks' tune... that's what I'm holding out for. |

I'm actually running the pbx in my e90 lci. Wife refuses to drive w/o it now. The throttle response is what you feel the most but there is definitely a harder pull throughout the gears w/ the tune. The engine just feels healthier. You can read my review on e90 as well if you already havent

I just installed the BMS PBX (power box) in my 2006 3.0si Coupe and I love it. Its supposed to give 10hp and about 17 lb-ft of torque. And I can definitely FEEL it. Its great because you can turn the performance remap on and off to feel the difference. Also, you can set the throttle mapping, which I really like. Before the install, driving with the sport button on was a bit too sensitive to throttle tip in, and with sport off, it was a bit too lazy. Now, with the chip installed, I have the map set at 60% and its perfect. The sport button still works and gives a little more boost to the throttle tip-in if i want. I'm really quite happy with it.
It was a little intimidating at first because you have to take your ECU out and pull a bunch of wires. However, the instructions are very detailed and easy to follow. And our cars have almost everything under the long hood within easy access. The ECU is on the drivers side and very easy to get to. Everything is reversible as well. I took a gamble wondering if it would make a difference; I am happy I did. |
