i dont think they make pulley for our engines, only for M5 isn't?
For the throttle body, do we need Dinan programme for the correct Air/oil ratio after installed?

For the TB, I am not sure on this. Max Motorsport is doing one for a M5. Maybe AK has some insight.

I had a good run with the two 335i at To Lo Kong. Both have zero mod on engine. They were freaking fast !! Turbo is turbo. Even I have a V8 with mod, still no match with it on straight road.
Stock to Stock....335 is slower than M3....but if a 335 caught a M3 by suprise (ie. in wrong gear), it would take awhile for the M3 to catch up.....
Handling-wise, M3 is in a totally different league... period...

Wow...what a way to run in a new car, but if your brake burned,
you can ask for a new set, as the dealer wont think you can burn the brake in two days

I think I better give the Dinan throttle body & big pulley mod some serious consideration.

True, they have high torque in almost any rev range, NA engine will never beat that, unless you got M's.
but on the handling wise, it will still no match to M3 no matter how you mod the car, just my 2 cents.
