2006 z4 3.0i performance upgrades/mods

[Heiliger]

I'd really like to know any ideas of how to make more power out of the car, are there any parts that are easily modifiable or changed.
I want to start looking into these things but I need some help to get me started
Please share any ideas that you have

Without big money there's not a lot to do to these engines, a remap might get a few hp an a better power curve

Yep, a remap is about all you can do but even these just tend to move the power curve around a bit rather than give more peak power. The other trick they usually do is change the throttle mapping much like sports mode so that you perceive it to be quicker.

You can supercharge them for a good hike in power but that costs thousands, nothing else is going to make much difference :?

Is supercharging better than turbocharging it?

 

[Heiliger]

Ps: for now money is not a problem and I just want to know what are the best turbo/supercharger, power upgrade mods that I can do
Thanks!!

S/C is probably the best part £8000 maybe more

To be honest it would probably be cheaper just to replace it with an Alpina or an M. :lol:

yeah I wouldnt bother with trying to extract more power, how about decent rubber ?

I suppose nitrous injection will give you the best return in terms of £ / bhp. A lot of people get put off by having a tank in the boot though.

Ouch!!... but seems the going rate for most n/a

A new air filter and plugs felt like it probably added 10hp to my car . :driving:
